Instead Of Worrying About Home Internet Piracy...

...which in reality really only impacts - to some degree - the music/film industry (and come on now, are any of those people who are the egregious downloaders/uploaders really going to BUY those items anyway?), how about focusing on some broader social and economic problems in the various countries - ones in which there isn't an industry group pumping money into politician's pockets? Or take on the countries like China which turn a basic blind eye to the mass production of bootleg CD's and DVD's. Oh wait, I forgot. We mustn't upset the Chinese - they're our trading partner. But we can go after the lowly citizens of our own countries because, after all, they're the easier targets.

A little less creative bookkeeping in the recording and film industry and, voilà, there's all those profits that supposedly are being lost due to piracy.
