For the time being, Lucky and Flo are working at a FedEx shipping center at Stansted Airport where they are sniffing packages that are shipped around the world. Trainers say the dogs have been notifying customs agents of packages with discs in them. The packages have been opened but so far no pirated movies have been found.
okay that is just messed up......

I'm sure glad every single DVD, CD, and console game shipped are being opened to make sure they arn't bootlegged DVDs. I feel safer already.
More proof that the RIAA and MPAA are out of touch dicks who can't get with the times.

Nothing new there; this has been happening for years. When buying CDs from overseas I find that the parcels have usually been opened and repackaged.

That article is meant to satirize the RIAA, though indeed it describes their way of thinking quite well.
