- digi_owl 12y agoI don't think Sony has been truly Japanese in a long long time. The company is a conglomerate. And the part that got hit recently was Sony Studios, their movie making part located in Hollywood. Wish i could relocate the article, because Sony has the dubious honor of being a company that sued itself by proxy. This by Sony studios being a MPAA member, and MPAA suing a bunch of electronics companies over lax copyright enforcement (Sony included).
- simonblack 12y agoSony is an important member of the MPAA. You know, those people who have deep pockets to lobby (read 'bribe') the US lawmakers into things like DMCA, SOPA, and the copyright provisions of Free-Trade agreements.
