Sigh its about time.

Moreso with the Iphone. One pays hundreds of $$ for a phone only to be told how to use it. piss off apple! ( however I wonder if they will void warranty for doing so - and also a nice way to introduce a virus)

Pc games, dvds everything. woo!

This is good news but I can't remember if the more recent Canadian "DMCA" had these provisions in them as well. I have a feeling that as long as the Conservatives are in power they'll be trying to put this through so hopefully it gets rejected at every step of the way.

There were all sorts of provisions for fair use in the proposed Cdn law, HOWEVER it explicitly bans circumventing DRM to do it.
