In 2012, Moviezwap.org was one of the most popular websites for downloading Telugu movies. The website provided links to high-quality pirated copies of movies, often within hours of their theatrical release. This led to significant losses for the film industry, with many filmmakers and producers losing revenue due to piracy.

Over the years, law enforcement agencies and the film industry have taken steps to shut down Moviezwap.org and similar websites. In 2012, the website faced several shutdowns, and its links were taken down due to copyright infringement claims.

The impact of Moviezwap.org on the film industry was significant. According to estimates, the Telugu film industry lost crores of rupees due to piracy in 2012. The website's activities also affected the livelihoods of many people working in the film industry, including actors, directors, producers, and technicians.

As of now, Moviezwap.org is no longer active, and its links have been taken down. However, similar websites and mirror sites continue to operate, providing pirated copies of movies.
