Abstract
Comments on the Australian Federal Court decision in Roadshow Films Pty Ltd v Telstra Corp Ltd on whether blocking injunctions should be granted against Australian internet service providers to prevent access to online locations which enabled television smart box users to stream copyrighted films without the owners' consent. Considers the effectiveness of such injunctions compared to earlier audiovisual industry attempts to combat online piracy.
