Am I the only one who finds this advert so irritating that it makes me want to download movies out of spite?
Any movie, even a chick flick.

Mainly because it doesn't give me any consiquences and doesn't tell me what organisation would be after me if I were to continue my piracy.
THE GOVERNMENTS!1!!!!!!111!!!
anyway, im going back to watch The Dark Knight with a couple of cans in bed. :thumb:

The DVD's are normally made by quasi-slaves in houses across the UK, illegal immigrants are brought over and then made to work to 'pay off' their passage costs. You can imagine the squalid conditions and the kind of treatment people might get if they disobey the kind of people running the operation.
As for shoes, t-shirts etc. they are normally made in dodgy back street factories in China, or increasingly Cambodia where instead of paying tiny wages staff are quite often bought from their parents and chained to the machines.
The victims of counterfeit goods arent really the big labels they are the workers who make them. And yes the conditions in the legit factories arent great, but they are almost uniformally better than the black market ones.
And of course its not just clothes and DVD's, medicines, toothpaste, shampo, even food is counterfeited.
Asking for trouble tbh.
