Canada Chimes in on 2257 Today

An interesting point in that article is, "That would violate Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act"

A few Canadian Adult companies have already released identification documents in order to retain their marketing materials. I don't believe they realize that they now face criminal charges here in Canada for doing so. It would take just one complaint from one model, and the company would be in very deep sh*t!

We have already publicly stated that we will never release information on any models or Amateurs who have ever worked with us. Not only is it illegal in Canada to do so (without prior written consent from the model), it is just morally wrong. The safety and security of these models is paramount, and there are just too many "crazies" out there (and in our industry).

When most of these women (and men) shot for the various producers, they did so with the knowledge that their personal information would never be released, other than if requested by proper authorities. I now have a number of packages that have been sent to me, with ALL the model's information, including addresses! And I didn't even request it.

Not only is 2257 unjust, and a real pain in the ass, it also affects the security of thousands of people, many of which do not have a clue that their personal info is being distributed all over the 'net. It'll just take one idiot to think it's funny to release it all to the masses. I doubt very much the NDA's that some people are signing will have much of an effect on that.
