Default Music Industry Wants Info on Canadian File Swappers

http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNe...4/?hub=SciTech#

"The Canadian Recording Industry Association has kicked off what promises to be a lengthy battle against online music sharing, and the first hurdle may be the most difficult to clear. The CRIA has asked a number of Internet service providers to hand over contact information for customers it suspects of "egregious" uploading of music files. But at least one of those companies, Calgary-based Shaw Communications, says it intends to oppose the CRIA, citing new federal privacy laws that protect its customers.

"We're absolutely compelled under the privacy act not to provide that information," Shaw Communications president Peter Bissonnette told The Globe and Mail. Arguments in the case begin Monday at a federal court in Toronto."

Gosh, that sure didn't take long for Canada to follow the US lead. :roll:
