James Moore: Canadian Copyright Reform Visionary To Pitbull

[1stGlitchhunter]

this guy is wrong, he makes his money by supporting these laws and will most likely be unaffected by them.

[newstream2010]

BOOOOOOO. He's an idiot! We want the right to back up our purchased movies and CD's without the DRM getting in the way!!! The digital locks must die!

[seanaspire]

tell me you dont download anything.

tell me you dont watch youtube

tell me you dont go online...

Everything is copyrighted.

Means everyone should be arrested... You cant beat it, only place to start is the source.

[ScytheNoire]

Obviously MAFIAA money has changed his mind.

[Fulcanelliii]

get over it, if i cant touch it you shouldn't have to pay for it.

Lets compare the lifestyles of the 3 parties involved in most copyright cases

execs = 3 cars nice house 1 wife 2 girlfriends

the artist or director= 4 cars 2 houses and whores in every major city

The downloader= apartment, takes bus, hasnt been able to afford to take a girl out in years

Lobby for a BILL OF consumer rights then i might care about copyrights until I as a consumer have the right to be treated fairly get stuffed

[Evi1M4chine]

Oh, and by the way: I personally had contact with all the big bosses of the world’s biggest media companies. They are all, without exception, on cocaine or worse stuff. They offer you it and hookers, just to make a deal. Those people are completely mentally insane and live in a fantasy world of their own. But they are so sure of themselves, that they such politicians into it. If you see one, grab him by his coke-infested hair, and throw him out of YOUR country. Because he’s the real terrorist.

[Evi1M4chine]

I see a terrorist right there. In that video.

Also, I am a expert, and ownership of information/ideas/data is physically impossible on a quantum physics level. It’s plainly obvious to anyone who looks at the physical reality of it. You can not own information because you can’t control it and because you can not take it away. Bitspace is not meatspace, so to speak.

But there is a tiny industry called the media industry, that wants to enforce their delusional reality.

[shiny75]

It looks like James Moore has been paid generously for his about face. Your typical politician, chasing the dollars with no respect for the people he is supposed to represent

[sneakywan]

Moore is a complete weasel with absolutely no integrity whatsoever along with the rest of the Harper Republican party that is destroying Canada.

[signupaccount66]

wanker

[jamontoastst]

never has that vuvuzela button been so useful!!

[twocows360]

Smells like corruption.

[Tuxie]

Corruption indeed.

[markt1964]

"they don't believe in any copyright"? Where does he get off saying that? I oppose a few sections of C32, but that's a FAR cry from not believing in copyright. I just want sane legislation that isn't going to turn perfectly reasonable activities such as private copying and fair dealing into criminal acts ENTIRELY at the whim of content providers, who could effectively revoke such privileges that are supposedly explicitly offered by this bill simply by having the presence of a digital lock.

[theheadlessrabbit]

This bill will pass and Canada will be a better country for it?

I think not.

Canada will be a better country when you and your party are booted out of office, and a party that represents the people of Canada, not foreign industry, is in power.

[pooperonipizza]

I will bittorrent twice as much this month now.

[stranger201]

All I have to say is Douche baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaag!

[darkwinglance]

5. DO ANY OF YOU HAVE WRITEN PERMISSION TO RECORD THE STUFF YOU HAVE RECORDED AND HAVE YOU ALSO PAYED THEM FOR THE ABILITY AND PRIVLIDGE TO DO SO IF NOT THEN AREST YOUR SELF FIRST

[darkwinglance]

ok the 5 questions to ask if you you get downloading. ask in court and have everone answer including the judge.

1. have you owned a vcr, computer that hooks to the cable or satalite, a pvr or a TiVo

2. have you ever use any of them to recored a movie

3. have you owned a tape deck

4 have you ever recorded a song using that

and the most inportant question

[FNGghost]

IDIOT!!

[darkwinglance]

yo morons if it has een shown on tv or been on the radio and it can be copyed with a vcr or a tape deck then it shoudl be free to download becaue it has been publicly shired by big corperations. its the ig corperations that are itching now that they realise that they are loosing out on money that since this tecnoligy and they are the ones that pull the goverment strings. i also would not dought that the people in the goverment are getting the pocets filled with money to help fight for this.

[hcivesil]

Think of the great inventions late: the iPad, the iPhone, 3G and 4G networks, IP version 6, to accommodate more than 4 Billion addresses, faster and more powerful computation, bittorrent allowing people to use their harddrives to store data more efficiently, the hard drive itself getting smaller, memoristers, etc. Now ask yourself: How many of these advances were based on creating a law and not based on science and technology? Bleak promise that a set of laws will herald in a new erra? X-)

[BMcRaeC]

Technical = Nonsensical, fear-mongering? Oh my… I wonder what leverage the lobbyists used. DOn't beleive in copyright? There's the nonsense. Lawyers… why try to persuade by coherent, rational argument when the false flag approach works SO much better? "It's too complicated, just let us worry about the details… you'll see, it'll be all good once you've signed…" Wake up Canada! These people are NOT your friends!

[iloveravi]

Wow. Nice post.  I fucking hate James Moore now. Well done.

[slagish]

prworks - I think you have it -- last year, people concerned with copyright reform had a point but now we're all completely anti-copyright according to him.

I suppose next year he'll be calling us terrorists -- oh wait, he's already calling anyone opposing his silly bill for any reason "radical extremists."

[prworks]

@slagish I see. We'll see how this works out for the Tories. A statement like "there are people passing themselves off as experts who actually don't want copyright reform at all" is a bit on the bold side. The digital world is very different than the physical world...the laws have to change to address the shift. The laws shouldn't change to apply old constructs to the new world.

These guys can say all they want, but no napster, no iTunes. Demand drives innovation, not laws.

[prworks]

I'm not sure I fully see how his position changed. Was it that he seemed conciliatory towards Michael Geist in 09 and then was attacking "his kind" as anti-copyright in 10? Maybe I don't have the context to fully understand it.
