Musk files lawsuit in...
I hope he does. We handle lawsuits differently in Canada and he doesn't own our judges or supreme court. I look forward to reading the judges decision lambasting him and his lawyers.
Canada should make its own version of Netflix, Amazon and Uber and watch American companies cry while they try to sue in Canadian courts and flounder.
Every country should do this. There's no reason for a cut to go to Silicon Valley when you buy Canadian food from a Canadian restaurant delivered by a Canadian driver. Fuck em.
Netflix should not be making ad revenue when people around the world binge watch Kim's Convenience (a Canadian production).
It's about time we cut the US media mafia out. They need to see that the walled garden they've created around their profits is not impenetrable.
May I introduce you to CBC Gem?
CBC Gem is genuinely one of the best streaming services out there. And it's free.
May I introduce you to torrents and Plex?
The post I was responding to was about steaming services, so I responded in-kind. Torrents have obviously always been an option, even in the heyday of streaming.
