And so it begins: link. If you copy DVDs, you are directly supporting drug trafficking and the rape of small children. As if you didn’t know that, you raping, drug-dealing monster, you.

The USA has been subjected to a torrent (get it?) of this kind of crap in recent years, but we have largely been spared. It is deeply troubling to hear a Federal Minister directly reading from the RIAA/MPAA/local variant script.

And of course, every single person who copies a movie would definitely have bought that movie, which means that the following statement is entirely correct and not a total load of bullshit:

The Federal Government says DVD piracy is costing the entertainment industry more than $1.7 billion.
