The organization MPAA (Cinematic Association of America) has long and firmly won the glory of one of the main fighters against pirates. Together with its twin brother RIAA, which seeks to lower the Jolly Roger in the music market, the MPAA has already initiated dozens of lawsuits against both distributors and consumers of counterfeit creative works.
And in many respects it is its extremely negative image in the eyes of the curious Internet audience MPAA and is obliged for a small scandal that arose after publishing a post on the blog
TorrentFreak , in which the author noted that the
official blog of the Association works on CMS in violation of the license terms of its use.
The author of the blog platform
Forest Blog Patrick Robin (Patrick Robin), although it allows its free use, still requires in this case to put a link to your site on the main page. Although a perpetual corporate license costs only £ 25 and for an average amount that the MPAA receives for a lawsuit, such licenses could be purchased for at least several hundred.

Actually, the fact of the violation of the license was discovered by Patrick himself, about which he immediately
wrote in his personal diary. However, he did not sue the Association then, and now there is no reason to sue, because the MPAA hastened to close its illegal (without any quotes) blog, albeit after the enterprising Internet users managed to remove a
screenshot from it.
Be ashamed, dear fighters for the observance of intellectual property rights!
