Copywrong

So a grocery store in Canada mistakenly sells 14 copies of the new Harry Potter book a few days before its official release this Saturday, July 16. So last week a British Columbia Supreme Court judge “ordered customers not to talk about the book, copy it, sell it or even read it before it is officially released at 12:01 a.m. July 16.”

Yeah, copyright is just another type of property right.
