"Superhero fighting software piracy" viral video (2009): encourages the public to take part in the fight against software piracy through the story of a man who tries to emulate Superhero characters in his desire to do something heroic; at the end of the day, he learned that he does not need incredible powers to be a Superhero: all he needed is the integrity and the courage to speak up against the use of pirated software in the workplace and thereby help create respect for intellectual property rights that would benefit the country as a whole
