Say no to Guilt Upon Accusation in New Zealand

New Zealand's new Copyright Law presumes 'Guilt Upon Accusation' and will Cut Off Internet Connections without a trial. Join the black out protest against it!.

Apparently our country has decided that it is ok to terminate your internet connection because of a mere accusation of breach of copyright (ie downloading copyright material). It’s not so much that I care about whether or not I can download copyrighted material, but to make a law which implies guilt without trial is to open a can of worms that leads to a very dark end.
