Not really - English is now the international language of commerce.

Well, more ‘Americanese’ than English but the point remains valid.

I dont reckon its weird that they sent it in English - I wouldnt expect anything else - they dont even seem to be able to recognise the soverignty of a foreign country let alone their language or culture.

Wide spread contempt was otherwise known as completely lawful activity a year ago in Sweden so in fact it has never grown, it was always there, its just the stupidity of the likes of the MPAA/RIAA/Government that turned cultural discourse into a property shit fight.

“I wonder why they don’t send letters like this to China, and the rest of the far east, where this happens far more often, and where there are even large hardcopy bootlegging operations.”

Because behind the letter is a money or other offer to some burocrat.
That is too risky in the orient. Could land someone in jail. In western countries, in monarcies, where corruption is more widespread and is frequently the norm the risks are lower.

I should love to see what stationary was sent Russia. Just imagine… a sovereign country actually standing-up to **AA.
