I'm a technologist at heart with a passion for emerging products and early stage companies.  Simple timing put me in the right place at the right time and gave me several opportunities to help shape the Internet during its formative years.  My education came via hands-on product development, a stint at NYU and side-by-side work with some of the most innovative minds in software.

    Software Piracy is a Well Run Business

    DateWednesday, September 13, 2006 at 2:15PM

    Software publishers need to take an active role in managing piracy and protecting their products. Several recent events have demonstrated how well organized and structured the pirate's operations are.

    These two recent events demonstrate that not only has the government and various other agencies started to take action in protecting IP, but that the operations involved in pirating said IP have become increasingly complex.

    The revenue opportunities available through the pirating of software is so attractive that publishers must take active measures to stop them.
