I guess we'll see who blinks first. But companies often act like something is impossible when it's going to cost them money, only to change their course later when regulators don't back down.
That's not to say the law is good or smart or anything, but I just don't take giant corporations' words at face value. They're trying to make as much money as possible.

While I don’t disagree with your premise here, they specifically say the Australian law is different and they can’t make those deals under the Canadian law. Would be a weird thing to say if they could. In fact they say they already have deals with some of these companies that are now in jeopardy.
