“I’m troubled by the growing signs that (intellectual property) piracy is now being undertaken by organized crime groups,” Reno said at a luncheon organized by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

She compared the phenomenon to illegal drug trafficking, money laundering, and gun-running in terms of its severity and need for police attention.

Reno said that intellectual property crimes such as piracy “should be regarded as an extraditable offense,” and nations should follow the lead of the United States in approving more criminal copyright laws.


When will it be a crime, to ask high prices for things that are worth a tenth ? When will it be a crime to use your power to keep prices high ?

I can't believe the nerve of these people. So its a crime to copy a few CDs but its not a crime to admittingly rip off the consumers with inflated prices, its not a crime to load the prices ten fold to maximise profit.
So this an intellectual property crime! and all involved have to be extradited. So this means that more than half the Asian nation combined have to be extradited for these so called intellectual crimes, yeh right!!!

I tell you what you are troubled with Ms. Reno,
You are troubled with excessive gas that is caused by constipation that often results in talking of your ass a lot.
Next time before getting excited and opening your Intellectual trap with BIG BIG words and dribbling shitless garbage and making a fool out of your self, to secure your votes for the next term, I suggest you change your public relation officer. Cause lady you don't know fuck all about what piracy is.
