Canadian Anti-Piracy Firm Caught Infringing Copyright
An anonymous reader writes: Canipre, a Montreal-based intellectual property enforcement firm, yesterday issued a press release announcing an infringement monitoring program designed to take advantage of the Canada's new copyright notice-and-notice system. Yet a new report indicates that the company may itself be engaged in copyright infringement, with a director's blog posting dozens of full-text articles from media organizations around the world, often without attribution and some that are subscription-only content."
"We're okay. It's not copyright infringement. It's theft."
This is ten+ years old now, but Orrin Hatch is still a sitting senator. Good to remind ourselves stuff like this happened.
