[ NNSquad ] Re: [Canada goes crazy


Regarding paying for bits... I don't think it is any more or less crazy than the UK's requirement that every radio and TV receiver pay an annual license fee.   As a pragmatic measure it's *different* than requiring transmitters to pay the government for a license to transmit, or requiring people to watch commercial advertisements to get "free" TV News programming.

Crazy?  Anything that is novel is first viewed as crazy.  So what?

It would be more useful to talk about what is useful or not useful about deciding to do that.  Doesn't fit on a bumper sticker, of course.
