A couple of weeks back, I was reading an article in the Economist on pirates. I have read similar news bites in the past, but still piracy for me was limited to RIAA/MPAA propaganda or one half-decent Johnny Depp film (don't talk to me about the two sequels). But the videos I'm posting today have helped reshape my understanding.

Then a different point of view on the issue, this one from the Voice Of America. I find this exploration of the issues considerably drier, but perhaps a bit more substantive. If these guys were outside a Indonesian brothel, I'm guessing there wouldn't be cameras around (you have to watch the first one to understand that).
