In this judgment, it is illegal for a Canadian to watch HBO and scores of other channels now available in the United States -- even if the service is paid for -- on the grounds that the federal Radiocommunication Act makes it illegal. The act says no person shall decode an encrypted signal without paying for the service and without authorization of the person who has the lawful right in Canada to transmit the signal.
Looks like another case for the WTO. Canadians have been buying gray market service from Direct TV for a while now. Hard to stop.
