New Canadian copyright

[antonkan]

How can I remove the new Canadian copyright? This was came in the red box and it says, "CANADIAN CONSUMER RIGHTS AT RISK - Click here to speak our copyright." So it was on the top of the GBAtemp logo.

So is there way to remove this?

 

[anaxs]

I'm fairly sure that this bar is only visible to Canadian members because I've yet to see it.

 

[p1ngpong]

I cant see it either, but Im interested to see what it looks like. Anyone want to post a screenie?

 

[Joe88]

same

only for canadians

region change in the profile didnt work so I guess it IP checks

 

[Toni Plutonij]

I don't see it, would like to see a screenshot!

 

[emupaul]

yes please do post this screenshot.. this is news to me... special ip filtering for Canadians....might be isp level right now....

 

[emupaul]

also run a command console if your on windows and type in ipconfig -all i want to see where the dns ips you have... this would be usefull information.

Do you have an ad blocker? If you do, you might be able to stop the bar from showing up.

Lucky Canadians getting their own special red GBAtemp box about their copyright laws getting wack.

Why does it matter anyway? Its only a tiny thing man alive people moan about the tiniest of things, especially women.

Thus is why Antokan is posting about this

. Nah, just kidding lol (maybe

)

ok well its a gbatemp only thing.... Americans should see this too, in fact everyone...why limit to Canadians this is a global problem

 

[Anteo]

I don't consider this a world problem becuase this issue is about Canadian copyright law becoming more strict like America's. I have already sent out four letters to the government via my name and the others living with me. I hope this doesn't get passed...

It is a global issue because of the side effects that hurt everyone else. I think acegunman had the example where GBATemp sponsors would be affected and that affects everyone on this site. This is of course a micro-example.

ahhhh, now I understand. Well I don't know if anybody from other countries can simply write a letter to our government, I think that would be irrelevant. But still hope it doesn't get passed xD.
