Still image from E-Pirates Of The Digital Age: Copyright Issues In Software And Music

Analyzes a variety of contemporary issues which are related to the use of information and communication technologies in society. These include piracy and copyright of computer-related media, including software, games, and music. Some of the issues facing society are not yet covered by government policy and possibly conflict with each other. Ethical and legal questions are not always in sync with each other, and any questionable or criminal activity can be difficult to police. Accessibility options on the DVD are: (1) expanded description, (2) English subtitles in a black box.
