Task Force Arrests 12 Infringers
Don't get me wrong: I take issue with the RIAA as much as the next guy. After all, they did sue a dead woman. But take note of the activities of the National Anti-Piracy Task Force in Ghana. In a three-day exercise, 12 suspects were arrested for possession of a combined 7,632 pirated CDs. Granted, that is quite the cache of pirated music; one suspect alone had 3,726 copies. But one arrestee had only 24 discs! 24! I know, I know. Breaking the law is an issue of quality, not quantity, and even one illegal CD exposes one to criminal sanction. But 24? You have 24 illegal copies right now, don't you? I thought so.
