Canadian Copyright Group Seeks To License the Net

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the everyone-wants-a-piece dept.

An anonymous reader writes "A new Toronto Star article from Michael Geist not only describes why Canadian Ministers of Education are pushing a copyright proposal that will harm Internet access, but also reveals how a copyright group is seeking to create a new license for Internet content. Access Copyright, a copyright collective, wants to use a new international text standard to license everything from books to blogs. Geist outlines in his blog how Canadians can fight back against these bonehead proposals."

    What? Is everyone RTFAing. I litterally read the entire second link and still no "first post".

      So now I scanned the text of the first link -- no second post! Is Slashdot empty?

      So OK you got first and second. I've been moderating (of course not in this thread now), and read the articles too - and like you can't think of anything to say... a giant so what's new?

      Comments show up when someone figures something to comment about - or when 2 people like us just blather about nothing.

      You & me about as off topic as it gets.

      Well maybe better brains will show up with something on topic.

      Congrats on both a first and second post...
