As someone inside the music industry, this comes as no surprise. The spotlight of the attempts of anti-piracy actions on the part of the big four and rights groups overshadows the actions of the individuals working at these companies and the others in the industry. Not everyone in these companies agrees with what the rights groups and major labels/studios are doing, or see it as case of "it's okay for as long as it's not ours".
- gvb 15y agoThe first rule of leadership is to be willing to do what you ask of others. The stink of hypocrisy is to ask others to do what you are unwilling to do yourself. I am sure all of the companies involved have a "no piracy" company policy on their books with severe penalties (probably reprimands leading to dismissal on repeated offenses). If they are unwilling to enforce their own policies on their own employees, they are being hypocrites, not leaders.
