In it, a pre-teenage boy is sitting alone in front of a computer, illuminated only by the screen, ostensibly downloading music. From out of nowhere a group of individuals in nuclear fallout suits breaks into the room surrounded by smoke and seize the boy using a pair of giant kitchen tongs. They escort him outside of his suburban home and into a windowless van, driving off at high speed. The message was twofold: 1) downloading is VERY serious, like nuclear waste serious and 2) the best strategy is to get'em while their young before they grow up into hardened criminals!

We will be finger printed, DNA profiled, spat on, and have a giant electronic tracker sticking out of our arses! The mere act of humming a tune will cause SWAT teams to crash through your door, tie you behind you back, and bone you in the bum.
