Piracy

This is a lesson for advanced students on Internet Piracy. Using the website mentioned here, I have saved all the youtube videos to my harddrive so I don’t have to worry about lack of internet during class. I will be teaching this class today and hope it goes well. If anyone uses the lesson I would of course like to know how it goes for you.
