Facebook group for fighting Canada's DMCA growing fast

Deb sez, "The Fair Copyright Canada Facebook group created on Sunday by Dr. Michael Geist to raise awareness of the Canadian DMCA is growing at an incredible rate. By the end of today it will like top over 3000 members! That is incredible. So much FUD flying about, if the legislation exists, if it's as bad as it says it is. This is one way to let people know that yes, it does exist, yes, we do have to fight it, and yes, here are the ways." Link (Thanks, Deb!)

as of 8:10pm central the 'Fair Copyright for Canada' group is sporting 4,522 members and growing fast (12 news adds in the few minutes between browser refreshes).

Since BB started noting this story a few days ago, I've promoted it on facebook, joined the group, and mailed my MP and the industry minister. I'd encourage all other Canadian readers to do the same.
