There are some lists where you don’t want to be crowned as the winner: most likely not to succeed, for example, or most boring person of the year. And if you own a company that makes and sells TV shows, having one of your creations at the top of the Most Pirated Show on Television list probably isn’t something you’d stick on your fridge.In a report released this week by Torrent Freak, a blog that covers copyright and BitTorrent-related news, the hit HBO fantasy series “Game of Thrones” won the seat on the Iron Throne for being the most pirated television show in 2013. This shouldn’t come as a surprise to HBO. The company won the same award in 2012.
