New copyright laws! UH OH!

[Mitch]

I don't know why it took me so long to post this, but I just saw an update on the new copyright laws the conservative government is instituting.
CBC has a great summary on the new laws: http://www.cbc.ca/arts/music/story/2007/11/19/copyright-law.html

Here is a quick summary:

Downloading song and sharing songs will be illegal
File-sharing will be illegal (Torrent, Kazaa, Limewire, etc.)
Recording any TV or movie will be illegal!Well, those are pretty harsh if they're well enforced. Expanding on the third point, you won't even be allowed to record a TV show to watch later!

Well, time to move to Sweden :p

They need to be shot.

Now I'll have to wait even longer to watch BSG... Or just break the law.

Unjust laws were made to be broken, after all.

Of course they will be broken, who won't break these laws? They can't arrest all of us!

I think they're taking away too many of of our rights. I draw the line after they interfere with the few TV shows I watch.

This has to stop. I say we all rise up against the government now. The time to end their tyranny is at hand; A new glorious age of peace, prosperity, and enlightenment shall follow. Who's with me?
