An anonymous reader writes "Last week, Canadian Supreme Court decision attracted
attention for reduced copyright fees for music and
video. Michael Geist has a detailed analysis that concludes
there are two bigger long term effects. First, Canada has
effectively now adopted
fair use. Second, the Supreme Court has made technological
neutrality a foundational
principle of Canadian copyright. The technological neutrality
principle could have an enormous long-term impact on Canadian
copyright, posing a threat to some copyright collective tariff
proposals and to the newly enacted digital lock rules."
