slays iiNet in landmark piracy case<br>
April 7, 2015 - 2:49PM<br>
Ben Grubb<br>
<br>
A Federal Court judge has ordered several Australian internet service<br>
providers, including iiNet, to hand over to a film studio the<br>
identities of thousands of account holders whose internet connections<br>
were allegedly used to share without authorisation the Dallas Buyers<br>
Club movie.<br>
<br>
In a landmark judgment delivered on Tuesday afternoon, Justice Nye<br>
Perram ruled in favour of Dallas Buyers Club LLC's "preliminary<br>
discovery" application requesting that the ISPs disclose the<br>
identities of people it alleges shared the movie online.<br>
<br>
In addition to iiNet, ISPs Dodo, Internode, Amnet Broadband, Adam<br>
Internet and Wideband Networks will also be required to hand over<br>
customer details.<br>
<br>
It was unclear on Tuesday whether iiNet would appeal the decision<br>
before the Full Court of the Federal Court. They will have 28 days to<br>
do so.<br>
<br>
The ruling means about 4700 Australian internet account holders whose<br>
service was used to share Dallas Buyers Club on the internet from as<br>
early as May 2013 are soon likely to receive legal letters from Dallas<br>
Buyers Club LLC's Australian lawyers threatening legal action unless<br>
large sums of money are paid for breach of copyright.<br>
<br>
This occurred in the US, where legal action was threatened against<br>
account holders claiming they were liable for damages of up to<br>
$US150,000 ($196,656) in court unless settlement fees of up to $US7000<br>
($9171) were paid. This practice is commonly referred to as<br>
"speculative invoicing".<br>
<br>
But in a win for iiNet and the other ISPs, the judge ordered that any<br>
letters sent to ISP customers must first be seen by him.<br>
<br>
The judge also ordered that the privacy of individuals should be<br>
protected, meaning Dallas Buyers Club cannot disclose the identities<br>
of letter recipients.<br>
