CANADIANS: I need your help! (Americans too)
 

Okay...this is a pretty vociferous community. Lots of people do lots of creative things in here. But now is the time to help eachother out. The government is accepting input on some recommendations that will DESTROY the adult industry in Canada.

Read this article

Or...here is a quick summary...

- The Canadian Department of Justice has prepared this document entitled Government of Canada To Review Lawful Access Laws in order to form the basis of technology law in Canada. AMong the highlights:

-establishing a national database of Internet users.

-force companies that provide on-line access to let police spy on their customers' Web and e-mail activities

-pass the costs of all proposals onto ISPs - including paying for the technology to upgrade. Here is the ACTUAL TEXT:

[B]The government is exploring how costs could be allocated within a regime that covers three main sets of circumstances. As of a date to be proclaimed by Cabinet:

1. service providers would be responsible for the costs associated with providing the lawful access capability for new technologies and services, and...

2. service providers would be responsible for the costs associated with providing a lawful access capability when a significant upgrade is made to their systems or networks, however

3. they would not be required to pay for necessary changes to their existing systems or networks.


Of course, they ask for input in a confusing manner..."The proposals in this document are points of departure for discussion and input on any or all of the proposals is welcomed." Just how the fuck do you submit discussion?

Its disgusting and it means the death of online porn in Canada.

I'm starting to put together a legit site WWW site to represent Concerned users of technology - it's in the planning stages but I hope to solicit ideas on what we can do do OPPOSE this cocksucking draconian set of proposals.

A. Canada
B. Not gonna happen

That's fine...I'll sadly cross your name of the list.

Given the competence level of Ottawa , we have NOTHING to worry about.:winkwink:

A big part of this boils down to the anti-censorship issue. I run such a site for anti-censorship causes..... let's talk sometime.

Canada is a country?

Couldn't Canadians just host in the US or somewhere else?

"A 21-page paper prepared by the Department of Justice, the Solicitor-General and Industry Canada calls for Internet service providers to allow, "at a minimum," what they call intercept capability when offering new services or upgraded service. "

Yes but we pale in comparison to your bustling hometown Metropolis of Glendale, Arizona..."The Antique Capital of Arizona"... Holy fuck how do you stand the excitement?!? ...With all these fucking churches...how do you get any adult work done?

Glendale?s Speed Reduction Campaign Hits the Big Screen

GLENDALE, Ariz. ? The Glendale Speed Reduction Campaign has made its debut on local movie screens. As part of an effort to get Glendale residents to slow down on city streets, Glendale has started advertising their safety message at Harkins Arrowhead 18, AMC Arrowhead 14 and AMC Deer Valley 30.

The high visibility of movie theater advertising will help target the message to young adults, ages 15 to 24, which is one of the goals of the speed reduction campaign.

The ads feature the Glendale motor officers encouraging residents to reduce their speed while driving within the city?s limits. The speed limit on arterial streets in Glendale is 40 mph.

Moviegoers will see the slides three times before the start of each movie on all screens. The ads will run for 13 weeks in the Harkins theater and 26 weeks in the AMC theaters.

Canada is the largest country in the world, but has a tiny population of about 30,000,000!

A little baby compared with the US, but if you just look at populations, then the US is a little baby compared with China or India.

Isnt VISa already doing this? Or planning to? They are only abiding by what VISa is telling them to do?

?

:winkwink:

funny

wow that was fast, are you doing searches for your name?

kind of weird actually, haven't been here for a while and this was the first post I read, and I don't really give a shit about canada vs. u.s. wars. The only reason I was fighting a few months ago about canada vs. u.s. was because someone said the four canadian soldiers that got bombed by the U.S. pilot deserved it. I grew up with one of those soldiers, so it bugged me. Never really gave a fuck about which country was better.

Somebody actually said that?!?

People said quite a few ignorant things. I don't want to brew anything up again, so I won't mention names, it's over with anyway.

pussy.

Glendale is a suburb of Phoenix

Actually, Canada is the 2nd largest country in the world. Russia is still bigger.

???

You're a waste of time bitch.

You can keep posting insults if you wish, I'm not bothering with you anymore.

aww did I upset you? What a big meanie you are Insane Midget.

It was me. I said it, and I meant it. All Canadians deserve death. Die!

Well...I guess the point of this thread certainly has been eliminated.

Come on Sly...you know you love Nickelback.

Gee, I wonder which mono-celled brainiac here said that?


Somebody out there is lowering the world intelligence curve all on their own.

oh yeah Russia is largest. Canada second, then its either the US or China.
Too lazy to look it up.

No, but I do still like Pammy. :Graucho

First of all, that joke is getting old. Could you even find Canada on a Map?

I could go on for days about how much I love my Country, but I can sum it all up by saying: Canada is one of the only Countries in the world where you can go outside to be alone. And oh yeah, HEALTH CARE FOR EVERYONE.

So you can go ahead and knock my Country, the rest of the world knocks yours...*




*No offense intended for our "Canadian Friendly" brothers and sisters to the South...

Come on up. We'll be waiting.

It already happening...never heard about Echellon ? :)
