International Intellectual Property Protection and Enforcement Act of 2008

elKabong · 2008-09-12, 05:45 PM

This is definitely a move in the right direction, but I see a couple of issues:

1) "legislation has been introduced" means that it still has a long way to go before it can actually become a law, if ever.

2) How do you deal with countries that won't, or more importantly, can't enforce this if it were to become a law? Particularly poor countries that have more important priorities and/or wholesale corruption?

I don't think the U.S. trying to enforce it's laws in other countries is going to work, or that it's even a good idea, there has to be a better way.
