Commerce Dept. Says China Must Stop Buying Pirated Software
An AP newswire article, via USA Today, reports that:
The administration is not satisfied with China's progress in cracking down on rampant piracy of American copyrighted material, and one of the biggest offenders is the Chinese government, Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez said Wednesday.
Gutierrez said it was "absolutely unacceptable" that a vast amount of the computer software in use in Chinese government agencies is counterfeit. He indicated that unless improvements are made, the administration would consider bringing a case against China before the World Trade Organization. He also indicated that the United States would be looking for support on the issue from other nations.
