Pirate Nation is the remarkable story of modern-day digital piracy, and how it affects business, society and culture, now and into the future. It traces the origins, methods and motivations of modern-day digital pirates, covering topics such as copyright and creativity, piracy in action and piracy's potential role in business.
The 21st century is awash with pirates, but not the cutlass-wielding, pieces of eight kind. Today's pirates are more interested in hijacking movies, music and video games than doubloons, in subverting traditional business models and copyright, not galleons. Pirate Nation is the remarkable story of modern-day digital piracy, and how it affects business, society, creativity and culture, now and in the future. It traces the origins, methods and motivations of modern-day digital pirates, focusing not just on copyright law or file sharing music, but also game, movie, literary and software piracy. It explores the 'pirate mind' and the rise of the 'free for all' culture. It also investigates international government and industry attempts to clamp down on piracy, and considers how businesses can work with piracy without criminalizing customers.
