Default Changes in Australian Copyright Law

I have just heard about the proposed copright law changes in Australia. Totally incomprehensible, I mean ..the second time you watch a recorded film the police will be hammering on your door and dragging you off to the cells.

What a crock of sh*t.....How do they expect to police that, they can't...
They may target the odd Sunday Markets stall holder, but that's about it...

Looks like you Aussies are the new target of the MAFIAA. Be very careful who you vote into senate from now on and fight this till your knuckles bleed.

I have seen some reports already of groups and experts that are trying to convince your politicians of how moronic this law is.

Remember the dying breaths of the MAFIAA. They are losing the battle, so now they try elsewhere
