#1- THE LATIN PIRATE ECONOMY
Pirate and Knock-Off Goods in Latin America- Today we present an updated comprehensive guide to everything you wanted to know about the counterfeit goods market in a land where it’s all about the price and almost no one really cares about copyrights, licensing or intellectual property rights.
Latin America is the land of knock-off goods. With some fake products making up as much as 50% of a given market. You’d be amazed how many things are counterfeited, faked and/or knocked off. The list includes toys, clothes, shoes, purses, luggage, cosmetics, software, movies, media, video games, medicines, tools, IT services, even pet food, human food and seeds!
#2- Should gringos and expats buy pirated or knock-off products or NOT?
#3 Clones and fakes and the Panama/Chinese connection.
#4- Some Latin Countries specialize in producing certain knock-offs- and today we have the list….
#5- Logistically, certain Latin countries have more of a “wild west” free and open attitude concerning buying and producing faked/cloned products..
#6- What about local and international law enforcement and the legal aspects of the pirate economy. What are authorities doing about it?
