As students, you have been recognized by both government and industry to be the consumer segment that is more willing than most (in the US) to use pirated software programs and other media products (music sharing)? Do you agree that these practices should be deemed illegal in the U.S.? Do you know anyone that has actually been caught and fined? Why has the theft, or privacy, of intellectual property become a greater problem in recent years. How can this problem be addressed?
