There are so many your neighbor could be 1. They come from all walks of life, all nations, there is no real predominate face of IP piracy. It started well before the W3 or even a local bbs, disks were mailed and traded long ago.

Note: I am not saying it is ok, just stating how long this has been happening in the digital world and how widespread the problem is.

Rudy steals from his affiliates also Robert, but that should not come as a surprise either.

You would be surprised how many of those "Eastern Europeans" can be traced right back to the west. You have to examine every bit of information and data carefully but many are not who or where they appear to be.
