The "Pirate Bay" lawsuit is perhaps of interest - http://www.digitalmusicnews.com/stories/021709pirate/. The platform - nominally in Sweden - essentially facilitates the transfer of content across the BitTorrent protocol (as opposed to hosting content). Interesting test case because the content - perhaps subject to local copyright - is not hosted on their platform. As you are no doubt aware the NZ Guilt Upon Accusation Law "Section 92A" (http://creativefreedom.org.nz/s92.html) intends to monitor and police connections to distributed computing platforms at the ISP (user) end. It seems in New Zealand there are some efforts at enforcing soverign laws at least in terms of copyright infringement. - Aaron Thu, 05 Mar 2009 20:39:55 +0100
