Canadians are one big family :) , I guess I should view world only 
through this centrally set up window.

Let me type into search the following words: "reddit sopa" -- here what 
I get 
https://www.theverge.com/2012/1/18/2715300/sopa-blackout-wikipedia-reddit-mozilla-google-protest 
Hm-m.

My mind rushes further: sopa has this taste of dmca, and that 
effectively removes the right to repair, which is needed to have local 
family shops, to keep economy going in normal times and saving canadian 
family in pandemic. Hm-m.

Strange thoughts, strange thoughts. Where can I migrate next? Googling 
... . S**t, there is nowhere to go.
