The new copyright law.

Well,

just be careful with the statements that they are correct. AFAIK, and 
IAAL but I don't
practice as one, Bill C-32 is only relevant for civil litigation, but 
has no criminal
sanctions at all.

So, a maybe better (maybe even more controversial) way of putting it, 
would be to
say that if the MPAA/MPEGLA/WHOEVER OWNS IT(not artists) want to be your
slaves, you cannot do a lot about it (amybe short of boycotting them in 
totally,
which might be that best way to get rid of them).

Just a thought,
Ralph
