The company is determined to fight back after a deluge of poor-quality copies of the first two Harry Potter movies hit the black market.

Pirate Act

Pirate Act 05/27/2004 12:28 PM

I have been watching the commentary grow over the proposed Pirate Act which is getting a lot of press over the past week and a lot of people are very worried that the government is going to start wholesale prosecutions of people who share music / software on the Internet. I need more information before I can
really come to a conclusion but it will be interesting to see how this is going to turn out. [ArsTechnica] [Dan Gillmor]

We also decided — right then and there on the court on June 6, 1995 — that the perfect spokesman for our new holiday was none other than Dave Barry himself, nationally syndicated humor columnist and winner of the Pulitzer…

The Big Sony BMG Pirate Battle

The Big Sony BMG Pirate Battle 06/17/2005 06:14 PM

Arrrr! Sony BMG is unveiling a new CD technology to provide a “speed bump” for those nasty pirates. The new CDs only allow for three duplicates to be made and can only be ripped to a computer in a protected format. Legal problems are already arising, though; the protected rip format forbids the music from being put onto the Apple iPod, so BMG is sending emails to inquiring customers with instructions on a backdoor route around this problem. Nice one, Sony!

Help Cory pirate his own story!

Help Cory pirate his own story! 09/01/2004 01:43 PM
Cory Doctorow: Science Fiction World, a Chinese magazine, recently published an issue with a translation of my story "Nimby and the D-Hoppers" (originally published in June 2003). They didn't ask first, so technically this is a "pirate" edition, but hell, I'm not all that worked up about it -- I'm pretty pumped to know that there are people in China reading my stuff (and for what it's worth, foreign publishers usually pay teeny little pittances for translation rights to short stories).

My only peeve here is that they never sent me a copy, and never put their translation on the Web. I sent 'em some email but they never answered.

So here's my challenge to the lazyweb: track down a copy of the September issue of Science Fiction World and re-type the story that starts on page 12 ("Technological Opposition and the Dimension-Hopper") and send it to me. I'll post it on the Internet and make it available under a Creative Commons license for free reproduction. Link (Thanks, Joel!)

Pirate radio workshops 05/07/2004 04:23 PM
Radio Free Berkeley is giving workshops on how to build your own pirate^H^H^H^H^H^H^H low-power FM radio station, and what to do when the radio cops come a-knockin'.

Building your own station is also illegal. Dunifer advises his students to enlist the help of an attorney before hopping the airwaves. But he describes microbroadcasting as "electronic civil disobedience" rather than a typical criminal act.

"As far as I'm concerned, the real pirates are the NAB (National Association of Broadcasters) and their member stations," Dunifer said, referring to the powerful lobbying group. "They've stolen the airwaves with the full complicity of the FCC and Congress."

Senate approves PIRATE act

Senate approves PIRATE act 06/26/2004 02:42 AM
Today, the U.S. Senate approved a proposal that will give federal prosecutors the power to file civil lawsuits against suspected copyright infringers -- penalties include fines up to hundreds of thousands of dollars.

The so-called Pirate Act has raised alarms among copyright lawyers and lobbyists for peer-to-peer companies, who have been eyeing the recording industry's lawsuits against thousands of peer-to-peer users with trepidation. They worry that the Department of Justice could be even more ambitious.

Senate leaders scheduled Friday's vote under a procedure that required the unanimous consent of all members present. Now the Pirate Act, along with a related bill that criminalizes using camcorders in movie theaters, will be forwarded to the House of Representatives for approval.
