White House Copyright Czar Jumps to Industry Anti-Piracy Group; Wired, 8/28/13
David Kravets, Wired; White House Copyright Czar Jumps to Industry Anti-Piracy Group:
"Victoria Espinel, the nation’s copyright czar until two weeks ago, has been named president of an anti-piracy trade group that lobbies governments on behalf of the software industry.
Espinel resigned earlier this month from the key White House post she’d held for four years. The Software Alliance, which goes by the acronym BSA, announced today that Espinel was named president of the group that bills itself as “the world’s premier anti-piracy organization.”"
