I work in a field where copyright infringement has been an issue since the late 90’s- early 2000’s. And to this date, copyright infringement through the internet remains a big problem. The Law of the Land has not been able to completely catch up with technology. In the old days, the in-house legal team had the skills and knowledge necessary to fight the old fashion copyright violations, but today….an entire industry relies on specialized outside firms to handle the internet or digital copyright infringements (search, track-down, delete and report).
My gut feelin tells me (and I’m almost certain) that the WT either hired a “worldly” consulting firm to train a few bethalites to deal with this issue, or it is paying an outside firm to do the job for them. I either case, one thing is for sure…they had to go to the “world” to deal with today’s internet apostates!
