Windsor Ontario is just a jump across the river for us, and I have to say that Canadian authorities are very relentless when it comes to being the strong arm of the law. It's like they feel they have something to prove because the rest of the world thinks their a bunch of whimps. Most people think of Canada as being this lovey dovey land with extremely polite people, and don't get me wrong they are very polite. But don't piss them off because they can be real bastards. When it comes to policing they make the United States look like hall monitors. Having said all that. What Demonoid needs to do is partner with some servers in a far off land that can't be influenced by anyone. Hey!
