I suppose that is reasonable enough.

But lets not forget that in USA there are also an abundance of pirated items and that is not an exclusive Latin American problem.
Just walk around the streets in New York... rest assured you will find a considerable amount of pirated items.

Anyways, those things must be handled as swiftly as possible.
