Holy Crap at a Corn Fest! I always said it was legal, but I never thought the Man would agree with me! :lol:

Yeah, it's the only time I give thanks that I pay that tax on all recordable media.

I have to say that I think it is definitely worth it. Infact I would be willing to pay even more than the current levy to be able to continue downloading copyrighted material.
Our govt's solution just makes so much more sense than the Americans. Just one more reason that I am proud to be a Canadian.

I know that the date stamp says the 31st, but could this be an April Fools joke?

I never thought of that....I hope not, that would really suck.

Now that I think about it the name "Justice Konrad von Finckenstein" could be suspect.

I think we're in the clear, several other newspapers have also reported the same story - unless it's a giant conspiracy.....

Ok, good to know. lol

Just incase you were planning on comming really soon, I am going home this weekend, so it probably wouldn't be the best time to visit. After that......

This is total BS...I hope the Copyright Board of Canada fights her every step of the way.

That it blocks P2P isn't that suprising:

That it reads my personal emails? That's uncalled for.
