Wow this is scary stuff coming out of New Zealand.

Holy Crap! What the heck--!

That IS scary!

Yikes!
Whatever happened to Freedom of Sharing?? I guess "Big Brother" REALY IS watching!!!

well it's not even that, it's the fact that no-one has to prove you've done it. Your immediately assumed to be guilty as soon as your accused.

no investigation, no trials, no nothing, just bam your guilty.

Damn... just when I was ready to leave the US. Now where am I gonna go?

There might still be hope.

The Prime Minister has taken note of all the protesting and has held back the passing of the law until March 27 so it can be re-worked to something acceptable for all involved.

And there's a hint that if it can't be done by the deadline it will be suspended until it can be re-written properly.

Good! Here's to it being "tabled indefinitely".

I'm glad to hear that this is being questioned. It would have set a ridiculous precedent!

Precedent is less critical in international law -- after all, there are precedents for shooting people because they look at you funny.

But it's a stinking stupid idea.

What did you do? Put in a call?

Yeah, I called in a couple of favors.

Actually they're trying to blame it on the US and Australia, claiming that both countries already have similar law and that it would be pushed by the US as part of any Free Trade Agreement.

Might need to call in a couple more favors yet.

Yay! Rocky's icon is back!

Whu'? Oy.
