In first 2 weeks after being posted on the Megaupload domain name, the IPR seizure banner was viewed 1 BILLION times #piracy
In case you're just joining us, the IPR Center and FBI are updating the #CACP on IPR enforcement, including the MegaUpload case
FBI on MegaUpload: Allegedly generated $175M in criminal proceeds & $500M in harm to copyright owners
Through Operation in Our SItes, we have educated 90M people around the world who visit that site and see the seizure notice. #BAM
Operation in Our Sites takes a significant amount of time to reasearch and verify IP infringements. Many cases taking years to complete
IPR Center: If you have a problem with counterfeiting, let CBP know
IPR Center: Until this year, footware was #1 siezed item. Now, it's consumer electronics #counterfeiting
Q. Why has the value of seizures gone down over the past 5 years? A. Internet (shipments are much smaller, direct seller-buyer shipment)
Wow! 425% increase in DHS seizures over the past decade #counterfeiting #piracy
DHS seizures have nearly doubled in the past 5 years #counterfeiting #piracy
IPR Center's Kubiak: "MegaUpload seizure was our penultimate success thus far" in IP enforcement
IPR Center's Kubiak: Educating the public on #counterfeiting and #piracy should be top priority
First CACP meeting of the year kicking off! Guests: Lev Kubiak (IPR Center) & Chris Graham (FBI)
