Section 92a to be amended

A while ago I wrote about the “blackout” campaign protesting about Section 92A of the Copyright Amendment Act. I’m pleased to announce that the government has decided (or is that “noticed”) that the section in its current form is unworkable, and will be amended before it comes into force.

A rare win for common sense in Parliament. Full marks to the team at Creative Freedom Foundation who led the protest, and thanks to Stephen Fry and everyone else who joined in.
