Companies that do business in dangerous waters must go to more lengths unless they enjoy being the target of pirate attacks. This is a battle between companies (the merchants vs. the pirates) and so far the merchants (or at least their companies) don't seem to have taken it all that seriously. For those interested, there are a couple videos at newsy.com covering the piracy issue from when it first hit mainstream media to today (the most recent is at http://www.newsy.com/videos/pirates_on_demand/ but you can find others in their archive).
