Super Powers For the New Officer of Copyright Enforcement

On October 13, 2008, the former "Enforcement of Intellectual Property Rights Act" was passed into law under a new name: “The Prioritizing Resources and Organization for Intellectual Property Act ”.  Such Act aims to consolidate federal efforts to combat copyright infringement under the White House’s direction.  In particular, The Prioritizing Resources and Organization for Intellectual Property Act establishes within the executive branch the position of intellectual property enforcement coordinator (IPEC), who will be appointed by the President and will report directly to the President and the Congress regarding domestic and international intellectual property enforcement programs. If you have chance to read through the Act, take a note of the number of tasks the IPEC will perform...  I suppose this is why the IPEC is already known as the Copyright Tzar .
