Description

This important problem is two fold.
On the one hand we have privacy problems, due to which owners of software, music and other property are making huge losses. According to a study of the Business Software Alliance, in 2003, losses due to pirated software (thus, only software, not the other properties) were $29 billion, 36% of all software is pirated. And in 2004 and 2005 this amount has only been growing and will keep growing in the future. With Web 2.0, piracy will be more easier because of open standards; that is why this is an emerging problem for our topic. In the future of Intellectual Property has to decrease the amount and easiness of privacy. On the other hand there is an demand for privacy and more security.
