] Microsoft has launched the Thought Thieves short film
] competition, inviting film makers aged 14 and over to
] make a movie on the theme of 'How intellectual property
] theft affects both individuals and society'.

] 'The subject of intellectual property theft is often seen
] as legalistic and frankly a bit dull,' said Alex Hilton,
] anti-piracy manager at Microsoft. 'The truth is that
] intellectual property is really about people's creations
] such as software, films, books, music or a fashion line.
] When someone has worked hard on a creation, it's unfair
] to see it stolen from in front of their eyes.'

I read a paper about this topic recently that was very fascinating so I found it interesting when I ran across this.
