The World Wide Web offers anyone a series of handy official lists of nations that are not all that interested in shutting down Web sites that publish copyrighted materials. A standard estimate is that there will be another 200 or so countries that will come into existence over the next 50 years. I think it is safe to say that there will be problems in enforcing copyright law in more than one. I foresee the creation of a cottage industry for Web sites that are located in copyright-challenged countries. I foresee an ever-longer USTR Priority Watch List.
Digits are instantly transferable.
It is as easy to access a Web site in one of the Priority Watch List nations as one located across the street. The document can then be posted on another Web page, or e-mailed, or whatever. This is probably being done to you weekly if you have not taken steps to stop it. I get alerted to an access attempt at least one a week. The day you set up a new computer, install a blocking program.
