@DHR
I do understand that.
My understanding, which may be totally wrong, is that they are going to attempt to enforce this by denying those who they even think may be guilty by removing their internet privileges.
My response was meant to state that if they wished to do that to me, bring it on.
I do not agree with the premise of guilty without a trial even with fairly substantial proof. I especially do not agree with the premise of guilty on suspicion alone.
I do agree with copyright and ownership of intellectual rights.
I do not think the bill is well thought out or that it should be enforced.
I have written an email and sent it to various government people.
I do not believe that C-11 is politically or financially feasible due to impacts on big Canadian businesses such as Telus, Rogers, Shaw etc. And if carried to an extreme the logic behind it should make photocopiers, DVD recorders etc. Illegal too.
We have taxes on tapes, CDs, and photocopying materials designed to protect authors although they are not that great. To make the bill honest and effective all of these items would have to be removed from use. Good luck with that.
My statement simply meant that while I may be severely impacted by the bill on the off chance that they cut me off, it will not destroy my life or make me more careful in my actions. I will not live in fear because of this.
