And what has Canada gotten from bowing down to US tech oligarchs and passing the horribly unfair and rightfully despised Copyright Modernization Act?
Nothing.
Worse than nothing.
Canadians are having to deal with more and more enshittification of the US-based tech they are forced to use because of these laws that protect US tech oligarchs' power, and prevent anyone from making better, non-US-made, tech.
That's right: in 2012, Canada passed a law that lets *American* companies use *Canada's* courts to destroy *Canadian* companies that help *Canadian* technology users get more out of *their own property*. This law - the Copyright Modernization Act - was wildly unpopular from the start. A federal consultation drew over 6,000 opposing comments, and only *53* comments in support of the bill.
