THE TAIPEI TIMES reports that the authorities in Beijing are set to crack down on breaches of copyright.

Beijing wants to clean up its act in advance of the Olympic Games in 2008.

The newspaper quotes a Beijing official as saying that fighting piracy is a priority this year.

We suggest that local bureaucrat Wang Yefei knocks on the door of the People's Daily newspaper and asks the hacks there about this article.

The address of the People's Daily is 2 Jintaixi Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing. µ

INQ Poll

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?

Yes, companies should suffer an immediate death penalty upon being accused of copyright infringement.

Yes, the coppers said the company was breaking the law so it must be guilty.

No, the company and the people accused are innocent until proven guilty.

No, the company had millions of customers who have been harmed by having access to their data files cut off.

I don't care, I never used Megaupload anyway.
