Check to whom you link - Part 2

A couple of weeks I wrote about a case where a minor "a minor has been prosecuted in Australia by the Federal Government for linking to a website alleged to be involved in copyright infringement."

Now, in a different but related case "major record labels in Australia have finally won a legal battle against a Queensland man and his Internet Service Provider for alleged music piracy," which was the first time of such a judgement in Australia.

This means that there still is no clear cut response to file-sharing and copyright infringements. Some countries say, it can be done, in others, users are prosecuted, or the law is expanded to picture-posting.
