Microsoft is stepping up its campaign against software piracy, filing
26 lawsuits targeting resellers throughout the U.S. who allegedly sold
illegal copies of Microsoft products or installed unlicensed software
on computers they sold.
The lawsuits were filed in Colorado, Georgia, Illinois, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, and South Carolina as part of the company's Genuine Software Initiative.
"Our message should be made very clear by today's lawsuits,"
said Mary Jo Schrade, senior attorney at Microsoft, in a statement. "We
are committed to finding the unscrupulous dealers of pirated software
and making piracy a business model that doesn't work."
