Attorney General: Counterfeiting, Piracy Increasingly Fund Terror Groups
Friday, March 28, 2008          17:57 PDT

San Jose, California --  The U.S. Attorney General Friday warned
that the huge profits generated from piracy and counterfeiting
are fostering terrorism.

Terror groups are taking their cues from organized crime and funding
their operations with money they make committing intellectual property
crimes, he told a gathering of Silicon Valley executives.

"Criminal syndicates, and in some cases even terrorist groups, view IP
crime as a lucrative business and see it as a low-risk way to fund other
activities," he said. "A primary goal of our IP enforcement mission
is to show these criminals that they're wrong."

He did not elaborate and did not take questions, but said his
department is devoting increasing resources to prosecuting such crimes
and filed 7 percent more IP cases in 2007 than in 2006 and 33 percent
more than in 2005.

Before Friday's speech, the Attorney General Mukasey met privately with
representatives from companies including Apple Inc. and Adobe Systems Inc.

A day earlier, he also met with entertainment industry executives in
Los Angeles during his three-day California trip.

Terrorism seems these days to be the universal justification for
anything that anyone wants to do when more prosaic justifications aren't
convincing enough.  The real reason we spend a lot of effort going after
internet piracy is that it digs into the profits of patent and copyright
holders.  Since inventors, artists, etc. do contriubute something to our
society, it makes sense to protect their interests, but few people will
get really excited about doing that.  If you make people feel that
buying an unauthorized DVD supports terrorism, that is another matter.
 Myself, I don't buy pirated products because I don't generally do
things that are illegal and also because I recognize there is a valid
purpose in patents and copyrights.

Perhaps we should subject people who buy those cheap DVDs to execution
or long prison terms.

We should start arguing that prostate cancer causes terrorism for
whatever made up reason we can come up with.  Maybe it will increase
funding for prostate cancer research.
