Thanks James. How does this work when we click in the very same moment? (Both of us get the Proz All Star black leather jacket and a packet of Lacasitos) At the very least. Margaret and I deserve the very best.

general scope

Here's another way to put it. I believe we need more context in order to come up with an accurate translation, though. When I read "de defensa", I thought that "global framework" might just work, but then when I read "piratería", I wasn't sure.
Good luck!
