The office of the US Trade Representative has requested comments from interested parties on “Notorious Markets,” which include both physical markets and internet sites that distribute infringing content. This is the second year in which the USTR list of Notorious Markets is separate from the Special 301 Report. Comments are due by October 26, and “should clearly identify the reason or reasons why the mature or scope of activity associated with the identified market or markets exemplify the problem of marketplaces that deal in infringing goods and help sustain global piracy and counterfeiting.”
The Federal Register Notice state that “the Notorious Markets List does not represent a finding of violation of law, but rather is a summary of information that serves to highlight the problem of marketplaces that deal in infringing goods and which help sustain global piracy and counterfeiting.”
