Take that, RIAA

I love my country.

"On March 19, 1998, Part VIII of the (Canadian) Copyright Act dealing with private copying came into force. Until that time, copying any sound recording for almost any purpose infringed copyright, although, in practice, the prohibition was largely unenforceable. The amendment to the Act legalized copying of sound recordings of musical works onto audio recording media for the private use of the person who makes the copy (referred to as "private copying"). In addition, the amendment made provision for the imposition of a levy on blank audio recording media to compensate authors, performers and makers who own copyright in eligible sound recordings being copied for private use."

Yippee!

Although, does that cover the sharing of said copied stuffs?

If you are into digital freedoms at all, might I reccomend Canada? I hear the liberty is nice there this time of year.

I wonder how long it will take for people in the US to get fake Canadian IPs?

I think it's only fair. We've got their satellite.

each computer has it's own individual IP address, kinda like a bar code, it's used to identify computer

It's kind of like the address of your computer, when on the internet.
