Too ironic
by TheMOC
This is hilarious. Having spent a summer in China, I can say that, for your average person on the street, copyright doesn't exist there. Go into any clothing store you can find things that say "Louis Vutton, Gucci" that defenetly are not! Every block has at least two stands selling priated DVDs, the majority of which are American titles... Students who write reserach papers are not required to use citations... Yeah it pretty much doesn't exist there. Lot of nerve to be complaining...

rather cute to hear an American cite a "so what? you guys do it too" argument. Guess that means the PRC has 'made it.'

and since those kind of lables are really just conceits of the privileged, who cares if someone is making similar stuff with phony names? Serves doofus rich folk right. Funny, Americans laugh at the movies where rich folks are scammed by regular Joes, they supposedly like Robin Hood, right? but then they blog on here about how deeply hurt they are about the Louis Vitton profit margin. (this is a company that sells $3,000 handbags to rich women). Funny.!
