| qu1j0t3 | "Torrent Freak has an interesting interview with a former private investigator who was hired to track people who pirated software and movies. He relates some of the tactics used to make evidence more appealing to police, the media and lawmakers. He said, 'We discussed the formula for extrapolating the potential street value earnings of "laboratories" and we were instructed to count all | Oct 04 21:15 |
| qu1j0t3 | blank discs in our seizure figures as if they were potential product. Mr. Gane also explained that the increased loss approximation figures were derived from all forms of impacts on decreasing cinema patronage right through to the farmer who grows the corn for popping.' Regarding the head of AFACT, the article notes, 'Gane understood that the media was an essential tool towards AFACT's goal | Oct 04 21:15 |
| qu1j0t3 | of getting tougher copyright legislation in place. And for this purpose, it was a good idea to bend the truth a bit.'" | Oct 04 21:15 |
