Except under the unlikely (*cough* *likely* *cough*) circumstance it's not
Australian.

And somebody please tell me this whole debacle isn't all just our gov't
paying $'00s millions because of MPAA (etc) lobbying/back-room-dealing so
that they're (finally) able to go aggressively legal about the way
Australians use P2P file sharing ...

I genuinely believe that there's at least one MPAA lawyer out there in
their 15th+ year of red-rage pain because of the way so much the bandwidth
over here is used.

Otherwise why not give all that funding directly to local law
enforcement/security, if that's what it's about?
