miladus writes "Finland has modified its copyright laws. Under the new laws all pirate copies
purchased by Finns abroad are illegal. Making copies for personal use is still
legal and consumers are allowed to circumvent regional coding of current DVD
players (by taking their players to repair shops that can remove the coding).
The new law "continues to provide journalists and photographers with the
copyright to all their work, allowing them to decide how their work is
distributed or published. The employer side attempted to gain the copyrights,
claiming that copyrights have lost significance in the internet era."
