As strange as it may sound, directv is in court in canada right now over a website hosted and run in canada concerning piracy.
Sounds simple on the surface, but you have to remember that canada does not allow directv to transmit into canada...
there are no legal subscribers up there, but directv does subscribe over 40,000 grey market users...
How can a company that cant legally operate in a country sue someone in that country while breaking the law themselves......


Truth is stranger than fiction.
when big business is involved, there are no laws other than the ones they want to use at the time....

(can riaa go after someone in canada? probably...)
