National Police have arrested 24 people in a swoop against copyright infringement across Spain, denominated ‘Operation Búho’. Those detained are allegedly linked to a network which installed pirate software on hardware sold from shops across the country in a fraud estimated to be worth more than 200,000 €.Investigations are based in 14 companies, and 11 searches have been carried out, two in Madrid, four in Barcelona, three in Andalucía and two in Murcia. Police say as many as 750 products, sold on CD and DVD are affected by the fraud. They are investigating whether so-called ‘malware’ was also installed, programs which could reveal the data on the machine to third parties.
