In certain forums, there's always this person who have a need to share "Delphi 6, 7, 2005, 2006, C++ Builder" and unfortunately, many of them live in Romania and... Czech Republic.
Unknown to them, since Borland sold off their Delphi assets to Embarcadero, it was later found that Embarcadero has presence in Romania and Czech Republic.
For instance, the head regional manager of Embarcadero Romania and the sales manager at Embarcadero Czech can easily go and get a court order to Deutsche Telekom (and other ISPs) to disclose the IP addresses for those illegal forums and FTP sites.
Here are some suggestions to fight against piracy in their own countries:
a) The registrar for the .EU and .CZ domains keeps records who pays for what and who the owners are. They can strike off a domain based on fraud registration. (i.e., person gave fake credentials to register domain for software piracy).
b) They can bring the ISP to court to lookup the IP address of the idiots who opens FTP sites to share Embarcadero Delphi and C++ Builder...
Hint: the physical IP address of them are in Sofia, a few miles from Embaradero's head office :).
c) They can then advertise the person's name publicly after going to court. That way, everyone will never employ these persons ever again.
d) Bring RapidShare to court to find the actual IP address of that person. One company solved this by setup a fake file-sharing website to nab the actual IP address of the file-sharing person.
The funny thing about is, Delphi developers complain there are no jobs, maybe reason is stinkers sharing Embarcadero Delphi are doing this to their own people in their own countries.
Article Update: Czechoslovakia changed to Czech.

There is no such a country as Czechoslovakia any more. You probably meant Czech Republic.
As delphi.cz admin I can say: there are jobs for Delphi developers in Czech republic.
Hmmm ... you're hating Delphi so much that you start to care about its fate (or is just compassion ?!).
Interesting twists of your blogs. You almost exhibit a love-hate bipolar relation to Delphi :)

To je pěknej blábol.
Jak jsi dobrej v Delphi, tak jsi slabej v zeměpise a dějepise.
Asi bys měl vrátit školné.
