Ok so far very good ideas and I tend to agree with RawAlex. At the very least a Canadian can understand their own laws and follow them. I understand PIPEDA. The privacy laws at the federal level are fairly simple but the provincial interpretations are just coming in. This can change over time but if anything they will get stricter. If that is a word.
My new questions are:
Can and will a processor such as ccbill require all companies to have 2257 compliance? I know there is that extenuating circumstance for canadians that they had to incorporate in the USA for visa reasons... so there is probably? no canadian businesses using ccbill? What about other processors? I guess they are offshore and wont be imposing anything?
Next...what about link lists? already there are some that have their terms listed to include 2257 compliance. Will us based link list operators have to force the 2257 compliance? tgp operators? Is linking to someone who doesnt bother posting their compliance a bad thing for someone who lives in the USA? does this mean those that wont comply cant play with any USA webmasters anymore?
Now what if you are an American and you want to use an overseas affiliate program? are you in trouble for linking/using banners or even free content from a non-compliant program? Of course this would have implications for the rest of us non-users.
