Microsoft has announced that today is Global Anti Piracy Day. So if you haven't sent out your Anti Pirate Day cards yet, you may be too late.
We can't see it catching on in the same way as Mother's Day, but the new launch will include both "education initiatives" and "enforcement actions" in 49 countries on six continents to combat the illegal trade in dodgy Voleware.
The Vole says software piracy and counterfeiting is a sophisticated, global trade with a damaging impact on consumers, businesses and economies. "Microsoft is committed to working with others around the world to stay a step ahead of this illegal industry,” said David Finn.
“We are working to identify international connection points between software pirates and counterfeiters, to help stop them in their tracks and protect consumers and legitimate businesses from this illegal trade,” he warned.
