Has the original “Street Artist’ been contacted concerning your use of his work? I don’t know the etiquetee. Does the fact that the original painting was done on the street mean that the artist has no rights regarding its usage? Just curious.

No chance of them getting dragged throught the courts on piracy charges then. What is the matter, have they got too much money.

The title should be changed to “Bell Canada’s Virgin Mobile and the Red Ballooon”

Yes. Virgin Canada IS Bell Canada. Bell Canada owns Virgin in Canada.

In effect it was Bell Canada who pirated and who infringed copyright.

They should lose their internet, pay 2-million and maybe the exec’s spend a year in jail.

After all, it is Bell Canada who is throttling everyone and using DPI because 5% of the population are pirates and copyright infringers.

The example should be made starting with those accusing others of “crimes”.

Maybe an full audit of Bell Canada computers and a confiscation of their computers for analysis should be performed.

What Virgin Mobile did in Australia is totally irrelevant. This Virgin Mobile in Canada is 100% OWNED and operated by Bell. Blame them instead.
