I thought that copyright violations were a criminal matter in the US,
but after some cursory searching, it appears to be more complicated.
Apparently there's both a civil part and a criminal part, where
apparently the criminal part is for some cases of willful copyright

I don't know California but sounds nice. Also I guess I'd need to do
the same to see if $local_country would do such a thing too.
