| Supreme Court rules ISPs not subject to broadcast regulation»www.theglobeandmail.com/news/tec···2332233/
Canada's Internet service providers aren't bound by the country's broadcast regulations, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled Thursday.
“An ISP does not engage with these policy objectives when it is merely providing the mode of transmission,” the court ruled as it dismissed the challenge.
“ISPs provide Internet access to end-users. When providing access to the Internet, which is the only function of ISPs placed in issue by the reference question, they take no part in the selection, origination, or packaging of content.” |
