The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated digital development both internationally and in Indonesia. This digital development also influences digital piracy, which is the main focus of this research. The aim of this study is to investigate the factors affecting users continuance intention in engaging into digital piracy. The religiosity theory, ethics theory, Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT), and Expectation Confirmation Model (ECM) will be used as the theoretical framework to dig down deeper into user behavior regarding the piracy of digital content. Our research method involves collecting quantitative data from 479 respondents through an online questionnaire and qualitative data through interviews with 30 participants. We analyze our quantitative data using the CB-SEM method with the assistance of AMOS 24 software, while the qualitative data is analyzed through a content analysis approach. Our research results indicate that effort expectancy, performance expectancy, and perceived benefits influence the confirmation of digital piracy actors' expectations. It is also found that confirmation affects satisfaction, and satisfaction influences users continuance intention to persist in digital piracy. Also from the results of this study, it was found that intrinsic religiosity, extrinsic religiosity, social influence, and moral obligation were not proven to affects confirmation. We hope that the findings of this research will provide more insights for relevant stakeholders, including the policy makers, platform providers, and digital content developers in designing strategies to address and prevent the practices of digital content piracy.
