So many people argue that counterfeiting benefits consumers by giving them access to lower-price goods.This is totally mistaken claim.First, imitated products are generally of bad and low quality, and don't last long. There is no guarantee for money and more importantly there is no assurance that fake goods are safe, and can have terrible effects. For instance, low quality car parts can cause great damage to the driver and passengers when they fail.0
In addition, fake medicines or foods have negative consequences on public health. There are several cases of imitated foods ana medicines which have caused dangerous and most often fatal diseases, especially in poor countries where the majority of people have low incomes. A recent study revealed by EU shows that the customs are confiscating 100 million fake items, as regards foods and medicines, every year , and of course, the moral damage caused by these items to the victims can never be forgiven.0
Moreover, it is highly immoral and dishonest to reap what others have sown. That is to say that instead of creating new objects or at least improving the existing ones, imitation kills creativity and innovations.0
Furthermore, pirating products is theft, especially when the producer of a fake object sticks the label of famous trade-mark on it. These producers, indeed, bring a very bad reputation to their country through there unethical practices. One wouldn't like Algerian to be know for practicing this dubious trade or to see them buy cheap, fake products that can lead to serious troubles.0
