Microsoft Misleads On Canadian Copyright Reform
An anonymous reader writes "As the battle rages over a Canadian DMCA, Microsoft Canada has published an op-ed in a political newspaper that Michael Geist describes as astonishingly misleading and factually incorrect. Microsoft tries to argue that Canadian copyright law provides no legal protections, even after it received one of the largest copyright damage awards in Canadian history just one year ago."
Microsoft had the guts to lie in this op-ed. It's the journalist covering it (and Slashdot repeating them) where the guts are lacking to call it "lying".
That's how the lies live on. Because "not a compliment" is not a condemnation.
