I'm not sure about frightening, but if you're offering ways to pirate signal of those big companies, you have to expect a legal battle. I think on the long term they can't win, people are switching to streaming more and more. Their only way out will be to significantly reduce their profit. But I'm still paying for cable...

I didn't even see what you were replying to. The New forum has an ignore feature.. love it!

I'd actually agree with the dev here. It's not his problem. It's the sites providing the files for streaming. They would have to sue Google as well, as it's the same thing.

@f0rni the 3 years is not yet in effect, but if you read the link posted by @profiler you'll see that it's official and expected to come into effect this fall. It will be in effect for sure for all of us.

Whoops! It seems like I skipped this part: "This chart explains the changes that have been made to the Citizenship Act and indicates when these changes are expected to come into force."

Now everything is clear :D

I agree, but I mean if what you're doing is affecting the incomes of these giant companies, you have to expect legal fight. I'm not saying they will win their case, but they will make him spend every penny he has in court.

the frightening thing is the lack of rights to a fair process this man had, and the fact that companies could get away with such heinous search and detainment, this is the stuff you would expect from some third world fascist socialist state, not supposed to be what happens in free countries

And they can expect to spend money to pay his legal fees as a result. No problems for me either way :).

What's funny is, the software he "developed" wasn't his, but he just aggregated it. So his responsibility is basically zero.

On that part I agree, I don't know if there will be any consequences for doing much more than they were allowed to.

That comes as a retaliation suit. I hope his lawyer goes for it and works on contingency... That would stunt the telcos and the use of that rule

Surprisingly though, that happened in Montreal and I didn't see any coverage of the story in French.

Yeah..strange. I think it's supreme Court though, so maybe that's the influencing factors?

No it usually gets covered, either I missed it or it was really not covered in French. My settings are for Quebec city on radio Canada website, so I could have missed it if it was treated as a local news, but lapresse covers Montreal and I didn't see it there.
