Bill C-11 is just as bad a SOPA, but because its not american, no one knows about it.

I'm not so sure. I think protecting copyright is a fine thing. And as far as I know C-11 isn't about taking down websites like SOPA. Also it is already in effect. If it was so bad wouldn't we notice it by now?
I think that C-11 is a fine law. If you have any information that it is actually just government lobbying I'd love to have it. But from what I've seen it's fine.
Is fine?? Sure, ok...Although Bill C-11 appears to be more flexible than the previous attempts at copyright reform, this bill is flawed to its core by the inclusion of strict, anti-circumvention provisions. Understandably Canadians are concerned at how easily their rights are trumped by the overriding protection for digital locks included in this legislation.
Bill C-11 includes provisions to address consumer activities such as format and time shifting, however these are all subject to digital locks. For example, consumers will now be permitted expressly by law to rip tracks from a CD into an MP3 and then transfer it their iPod or to make a backup copy of digital content to protect against loss or damage. However it would be illegal for a Canadian to transfer a legally obtained DVD movie onto their iPad for later viewing since all commercially available DVD movies employ digital locks and circumventing these locks is prohibited under Bill C-11. It is precisely this blanket protection for digital locks that overrides the rights of Canadian consumers and creators, including any newly granted rights provided by Bill C-11.
Also
Just because it doesnt attack the whole worlds rights. Does not mean it is not violating every canadians.
Unless you enjoy listening to CD's or just buying them digitally to use them. Then yeah awesome. If PVR's and **** like that have no affect in your life then cool. But if it is already in affect, then in the near future PVR's will be re-called or wont work. And DVD/CD/BRD wont ever come with a digital copy for us anymore.

I personally think it should be the company's decision whether or not they want you to be able to unlock their DVDs. You know free market economy. But having the government force them to lock the DVDs is bullsh*t.
Did not want to start a flame war friendo. I stated that I was uneducated in the subject. Now I am educated. Thanks.
