A recent “operation” of the Motion Picture Association of America, whose “Keystone Kops” unit is run by ex-U.S. Department of Justice deputy assistant attorney general John G. Malcolm, was a media circus. Helped by the Southern California High Tech Task Force, Malcolm and his crew raided New Century Media, a legitimate Los Angeles duplicating business, which, Malcolm charged, was an “illegal DVD/CD replicating plant,” he said as he and his unit seized what they claimed would be “US$30 million in illegal stampers and DVDs.”
