zeropaid.com — A few days ago a new Chinese law went into effect that establishes fines for those that distribute pirated copies of music, movies, and software over the internet. The fine, 100,000 yuan or $12,500 USD, is an interesting new attempt to finally give some semblance of teeth to it's efforts to crack down on the pirating of goods in China.

Whats funny is how they didnt care until they had their own Software and TECH companies producing goods "in house," and thereby started to become directly affected by piracy. If theres one thing China's good at, its protecting their own interests.
