| | Bootlegging - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | During Prohibition of the 1920s in the United States, much of the bootleg whiskey in the U.S. was brought in from Canada and much of the bootleg rum was imported from Mexico or Cuba. | | | Today most bootleg alcohol in the U.S. is made domestically but sold "under the table" or "off the back of a truck" without the necessary permits and taxes. | | | Goods such as compact discs, DVDs and other Intellectual Property are considered to be "bootleg" if they are replicated without permission of the copyright holder. |

| | The term is sometimes mistakenly used to refer to making untaxed alcoholic products, but, properly speaking, that is "moonshining", not bootlegging (although a bootlegger may be working with a moonshiner, selling or delivering the liquor for that manufacturer). | | | An unlicensed radio station operating such that a license is required is called a bootleg (or pirate) station. | | | There are also bootleg broadcast stations that operate for various reasons. |

| | moonshine: Definition and Much More From Answers.com |
| | Selling it, or selling legally made alcohol in an illegal manner, is "bootlegging". | | | Ordinary white sugar is often the chief ingredient of moonshine mash, in which case the spirit distilled is technically a rum rather than a whiskey. | | | The literal meaning of moonshine is the light of the moon, but because the activity of distilling whiskey unlawfully was usually done at night with as little light as possible, the word became both a verb, meaning making the liquor, and a noun, meaning the liquor that was made. |
