<p class="MsoNormal">There's an awful lot wrong with this. Basically all of it. And regardless of whether you're ready as a network operator to stand up and keep your AusNOG activities where they currently are (alternating between posting weird traceroutes
to the list and asking if anyone near Skipton, VIC has a spare line card because yours just smoked up) rather than going where the copyright lobby wants them (posting to the list each day about how to keep the cost of issuing compliance notices down, asking
the list where the best sparkling water is for the lawyers in the lobby, you know basically everything other than operating a network), then you need to know what's wrong with this and why.</p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Maybe you don't care. Maybe as a network operator you are completely down with your duties migrating to meeting SLA's set by the Australian Screen Association for turning around threatening letters, but you need to know the facts. I run AS132710
and I'm angry as hell, but I know the facts and choose to be both angry and informed.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">1) There is no legislation to outlaw piracy and none is proposed. "Intellectual property theft" is a bunch of silly words put together by silly people and are good for nothing other than light amusement. The Australian Copyright Act
only criminalises copyright infringement if it is accompanied by secondary factors such as commercial scale, circumventing a technological protection measure, advertising infringing works, or a bunch of other conditions. Piracy is not illegal in Australia,
nor will it become so, because the content industry and the government realise that the entertainment corporations creating criminal offences around it (without the excuse used overseas that there is a local movie and film industry whose profits are predicated
on it), is a bad way to get your way. This has been gone over countless times in response to the industry's billowing, spittle spreading mouthpieces and it's been vacated every time because it's simply not right. Thankfully George Brandis' responses to Scott
Ludlam in senate estimates lately about how Australia doesn't have illegality around individual copyright infringement played his hand further into open misere than it had ever been, and thankfully stopped me having to refer people to the Copyright Act, have
them read all of it and comprehend it. Because it's not illegal, and because it can't feasibly be made illegal (without the industry vilifying consumers), the focus and attention is on ISPs who are seen to "facilitate" it by the lobbyists merely by providing
services to their end users. Ya know, what we're all in business for.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">3) Not only are the activities not illegal, iiNet is not giving the tacit nod to them. This is EXPRESSLY called out in chief regulatory officer Steve Dalby's blog post, and when iiNet handed Hollywood its fat, white, wrinkled butt in
the High Court, the judge in the case specifically rejected that iiNet or any other provider has any incentive to give piracy the nod. Pirates aren't good service provider customers, they are a threat to availability in non-SP private networks, pirates use
all the available bandwidth using software which is not designed to co-exist with other network users and run the profitability of their resource allocation to the hilt. You're last in the queue of people to accuse iiNet of thinking pirates are awesome and
profitable, and everyone in the queue in front of you have been deliberately and specifically shot down in a burst of flames and a long trail of black smoke by either the people who operate the networks, or judges of the high court.</p>
