taucross writes "Australian ISP iiNet is making a very bold move. 
They are asking the court to accept that essentially, BitTorrent 
cannot be used to distribute pirated content because a packet does 
not represent a substantial portion of the infringing material. They 
are also hedging their bets purely on the strength of the movie 
studios' 'forensic' evidence. This ruling will go straight to the 
heart of Australia's copyright law. At last, an ISP willing to stand 
up for its customers! Let's hope we have a technically-informed judge."

Our truest response to the irrationality of the world is to paint or 
sing or write, for only in such response do we find truth.
