Pirater Forced To Take Out Humiliating Advertisement




M A Jabarkhail of Grimsby was caught selling Microsoft copyrighted materials on ebay. He was found guilty by the EU (European Union) Intellectual Property Enforcement Directive and forced by judgement to take out a ad in PC Retail (Cost £370) that admits hes nothing but an ebay pirater.
"Such a public admission of guilt is certainly a deterrent to those attempting to counterfeit products especially when the threat of asset recovery is, in some cases, uncertain," said Simon Barnett from law firm Mishcon de Reya.
