Lessons for Kim.
1. Don't make enemies out of Jewish people.
2. Don't piss off Hollywood.
3. Don't piss off New York.

Kim's comment, "If I were Iran, I'd build a bomb" probably won't make him any friends either.

The screenwriter, William Goldman wrote some excellent books on the Hollywood business. I read them years ago. Reflecting on his work, and thinking of Kim, I knew Kim was fucked out of the gate. He just didn't know it.
I have an easier one:

4. Don't be ignorant. Ignorance is not a defense to the law.

I guess he thought he had a magical legal loophole way to encourage piracy. And guess what, looks like that legal loophole that was the cornerstone of his business looks to be closing, fast. In his case, the fine line between being considered a criminal and a "visionary" is very, very fine.
