ISPs will be ready for piracy deadline: iiNet

[TradeDraft]

Mr Dalby told Fairfax Media last August the bigger issue in tackling internet piracy was that the business model of entertainment companies was flawed. He said cinema had become too expensive and legal content should be cheaper, to lessen the attractiveness of illegally downloading movies.

At least the Head of IINET is not Idiot like people in Government.

He agree’s with lot of people in the Public

Wondering if anyone else is blocked from downloading torrents atm? I can get into the sites, but physically cant download the torrent file. Coming with the "website is unavailable" on all the sites when I go to download the torrent file. Wondering if it's a worldwide thing, or maybe just my ISP.

More likely, I'll ring them, give them 30 minutes to unblock me, or I'll take my business elsewhere.

I know. It' s going to be interesting to see what happens. Funny thing is, you can't ever actually kill a torrent - only erase, or deny access to, links that point to it. Once its created, its there as long as the internet exists.

That is Intresting and yes but it could be useless as would have no Seeder or Leechers.

I am intrested to see what improvements The Pirate Bay will have after being taken down

Too right!

"...The problem here is that the technology used, so called ‘magnet links’, is not violating the right of 3rd parties directly," the company says.

"[There] is actually no copyright infringement originating from websites such as ‘thepiratebay.se’ which makes it a very complex case which is open for a lot of interpretation and discussions..."

So they are saying the People who should get in Trouble are Uploader's?
