The Pirate Party made a lengthy submission to the Attorney-General’s Department last Friday, responding to the Department’s “Online Copyright Infringement” discussion paper. Mozart Olbrycht-Palmer, principal author of the Pirate Party’s submission, said: The Government decided to focus its attention on changing consumer behaviour and our submission explains at great length why that approach just won’t work. If online copyright infringement is truly out of control, copyright holders only have themselves to blame. The reality is that increasing access and affordability of content will reduce online copyright infringement. The discussion paper acknowledges this but its proposals are focused in entirely the wrong area. [MO-P] pirateparty.org.au/2014/09/08/consumers-not-the-reason-copyright-discussion-paper-falls-flat/
