C-32

Bill C-32

Bill C-32 (text) (Integrated Redline Version) (commentary) is a new copyright bill tabled by the Conservative party of Canada, currently acting as our government.

What do you want?

C-32 isn't all bad, but the Technical Protection Measures TPM provisions of C-32 are dangerous to Canadians and the entire programming profession. Breaking digital locks/TPM should not be illegal as it limits industries and the consumers too much. Pirates will break the locks anyways, there is no sense turning innocent people into criminals. If copyright infringement occurs, punish the infringers. Circumventing TPM does not necessarily infringe on copyright.

Will the MPs listen?

What will C-32 make illegal?
