I hate that big tech firms steal content.

I do not feel that this extortion act is a good move. The extortion act will give the Canadian Government a huge slush fund that politicians will use to reward people friendly to their political objectives.

Little, if any of the funds, will go to independent creators.

CBC.ca will get a boat load of money. Independent sites will have to compete against a state subsidized firm ... which is very hard to do.
