You cant say all of China has 0 respect for copyrights ther are alot of legitmate business out there that do not infringe on copyrights. Just cause there is a big problem with it in China does not mean it is all of China. The USA of is the largest consumer of narcotics in the world then is it right to say that all Americans are drug addicts.

 

About a year ago when I once had my evo, I took a trip to RNR's shop. The shop was literally a garage with a glass display case a desk computer and a work bench. Other than a few mufflers and exhaust tips there was nothing else in stock. I was not impressed at all and took my business else where.

 

I see.

In that case, the United States of America have 0 respect for intellectual property and do not care about the blood, sweat and tears of musicians and actors because they love to BLATENTLY download MP3s and pirated movies using programs such as eMule and WinMX.

While you're at it, claim that Mexico has 0 respect for international laws because many of their their citizens elect to cross over the border illegally to work in the United States. They are all a bunch of dishonest people who have no regards for the welfare of hardworking American citizens and came here to "steal their jobs."

It takes a lot of ignorance to slap a generalization on an entire country.

 

Oh Jeeze, get off the soapbox, people.

This 'I'm being oppressed' mentality is so old.

The guy said 'China'. Big whoop.

 

And it's a known fact that production is cheaper in China and India, due to cheap labor and cost of living. A lot of what you buy day to day gets produced there. That's a fact.

I mean, it's not like he called you all slant eyed rice eating mumblers, for crying out loud.

and someone call a whambulance, he said china. . . boo hoo.

 

Hmm, I thought this thread is about RNR? Anyone else get tail wastegates with their kit?

 

Give it a rest and get that chip off your shoulder. No one believes that all Chinese are IP crooks. However, you can not argue the fact that the Chinese Government does little to stop the blatant rip off of IP, TM and CR items. All one needs to do is visit any major city in China and a quick stroll through the markets and you'll be amazed. Chinese businesses are the largest producer of knock-off/ pirated products in the world.

The difference between China and the US is very obvious in your example above. Try hosting a file sharing website that "shares" CR material. You won't be on-line for long before the US court system shuts you down.

In this country, IP, CR and TM theft and piracy occurs, but it is much less blatant and more underground. You see vendors on street corners doing it. In China, the are giant markets full of businesses that make their living by pirating.

 

The thread has wandered way off topic, and the orignal poster has had his question answered by the vendor in question. Thread closed.
