Canadian Border to Check iPods for Copyright Infringment

If this law is passed no more making playlists for those road trips up to Montreal to take advantage of their drinking age. This law, that is secretly being created, will allow border patrol to go through your laptop, iPods, and CD/DVDs checking for copyrighted material. If they do find anything, which they probably would with any college student, you would face fines and/or confiscation of your device. This law would just expand on the duties of border patrol because they are already allowed to randomly search people's laptops for child pornography.
