Nicolas "Copyright" Sarkozy mass-pirates DVDs
Found on Boing Boing on Thursday, 08 October 2009
The same French president who has for the second time brought in three strikes to France has for the second time been caught infringing copyright on a large scale. The presidential audiovisual services have produced 400 unauthorized copies of the 52-minute documentary 'A visage decouvert: Nicolas Sarkozy.' This is quite impressive as the producer of the documentary has only shipped 50 copies.
Seems those weren't just simple copies, but criminal engery was put into it. Various people report that the original copyright notice had been removed from the copied covers.
