Post Good news for Canadian Filesharers--better than expected

Oh Canada!

The CRIA tried suing 29 filesharers, the ISP's resisted turning over the 29 names, and a judge with experience in technological and international commercial relations has ruled against them today.

Search Google News for "Finckenstein CRIA" for lots more.

And---take a look at a really decent forum that deserves all the donations they get for their part in informing this decision:

What really ****** me is that the CRIA sounds contemptuous in insisting that what we are doing is illegal. The Globe and Mail reported

Respect our way and our judges!
