Product Piracy
Original or Imitation
Counterfeiting takes place in almost all economic sectors – textiles, watches, car parts, machine parts, tools, accessories, software and medicines. Some counterfeits are easy to recognise, others are so well-executed that even experts have difficulty distinguishing between original and imitation. This DVD covers the development of a product from idea to manufacture. Once a product has become a trademark, product pirates appear on the scene. Is product piracy a harmless offence? How damaging and dangerous is it truly? What legal principles are violated? How are counterfeits produced and what dangers result from that? The damage to the industry is significant. Apart from the economic losses, the damage to the image is severe. The deceived consumer may become a victim to quality defects in the case of material fatigue, safety defects or the wrong materials or ingredients. Legally, the industry can protect itself with patents and designs to take action against counterfeits. The film also shows protection concepts to allow a distinction between original products and counterfeit goods.

Internet Addiction
The film consists of two parts. The first part is the 15-minute short film “In the Net”. It describes the problem of excessive Internet use in a humorous way, in particular the risk of losing touch with reality when chatting. The second part illustrates with three real persons how Internet addiction can develop and the problems encountered by those who are afflicted. The authentic statements are commented by an experienced therapist. For many pupils, the issues addressed here are related to their everyday lives. What is a “sensible” use of the Internet, where does pathological addiction start? In contrast to addiction to alcohol, nicotine or drugs, the public seems to be largely ignorant of the problem of this addiction, which is not related to any substance abuse. The film provides material for discussion in the classroom (crossdisciplinary) and can be used as a basis for the formulation of prevention strategies.
