IP specialist,
Kim Weatherall, has been explaining
Australia's new criminal copyright laws: strict liability, 'negligence' and why these laws just haven't been thought through. She also
points out that though the worst excesses of the original draft, e.g. criminalising iPod owners, didn't make it through, the law still makes it a criminal offence to sell a second hand iPod with some songs still on it.
