Leaked RIAA Training Video: Find Pirates, Find Crack-Dealing Terrorist Murderers Too!
A Videos entry from Wednesday, February 20, 2008Gizmodo:
This is a leaked official RIAA training video produced with the National District Attorneys Association telling U.S. prosecutors why they should bust music pirates: Because it’ll lead them to “everything from handguns to large quantities of cocaine [and] marijuana,” not to mention terrorists and murderers!
Yes. It is that absurd.

Hi, Brian:
In Brazil, where piracy is as normal as lighting up a joint when friends come over, a prosecutor finally caught a guy who was selling pirate CDs of the Beatles or just trading them over on the Net. He got off with a slap on the wrist with a wet noodle. Very weird how they are always after one culprit for piracy. 1984. For real. And greed.
