US Group Wants Canada Blacklisted Over Piracy
An anonymous reader writes "Following up on an earlier story, the IIAA wants to add Canada to a blacklist of the worst intellectual property offenders. A powerful coalition of U.S. software, movie and music producers is urging the Bush administration to put Canada on an infamous blacklist of intellectual property villains, alongside China, Russia and Belize. 'Canada's chronic failure to modernize its copyright regime has made it a global hub for bootleg movies, pirated software and tiny microchips that allow video-game users to bypass copyright protections', the International Intellectual Property Alliance complains in a submission to the U.S. government."
South Park used to be funny.
Once the "manbearpig" episode aired, it instantly became unfunny, permanently. I have not watched it since and never will again.
I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels this way.
It is unfortunate, as their irreverent and establishment critical comedy used to give me a good laugh quite regularly.
The "manbearpig" episode made it quite clear that its authors are not at all who I thought they were. I really thought they were more intelligent than that. I guess not.
R.I.P. South Park, I'll miss your humour from before the sellout. Much like Dave Chappell.
Okay, I'll bite. What is wrong with the "manbearpig" episode?
I don't care why you're posting AC
"O Canada
We cum on thee..."
We could throw the complete inventory of a franchise music store into Boston Harbor. and maybe a few politicians as well.
Would you want to throw the "Israel firsters" in before or after the music and video lot though?
