    Canadian possibilities?

    Since a Canadian court has ruled file-sharing to be legal in Canada, has there been any development activity along those lines ... say, proxy-servers that would make sharing activity look like Canadian activity?

    Actually the most development seems to be coming from the Canadian courts, who are frantically trying to find a way to close the hole.

    But yeah some proxy biz could prolly do pretty well right now if they could come up with decent bandwidth!

    I think even routing files through Canada would waste too much bandwidth (seeing that we trade in petabytes). The money we spent on bandwidth, couldn't we pool it together (maybe with EFF) and buy some Senators for our side ;-)
