I would also say that it's cute, but these dumb f00ks are passing legislation left, right, and centre. If it only affected their countries, it'd be fine. However, the b@st@rds then put pressure on our government and the pu$$ies almost always bow in to them.

The DRM in the U.S. actually makes it illegal for you to listen to your own radio and now their introducing legislation that goes directly against the conclusions reached in the 1982 case with cassettes. Feckers. :evil:

Remember how that Mom was fighting them saying that it wasn't her that downloaded, but her daughter? Well, they just went after the daughter:

I think I missed this, but it's pretty important:

Downloading music in Canada = legal
Uploading music in Canada = grey area, but most likely illegal

Summary:

Only use newsgroups/IRC if you're really worried.

Man fired from his lawfirm on the grounds of his views of copyright:

I dunno if he'd have a legal leg to stand on in this case. Be a tough call.
