Australian High Court Judge Justice Kirby has said computer code is more potent than the law -- and legislators are powerless to do anything about it.
In a decision that could have far reaching consequences for Sony, the High Court of Australia has found it is legal to mod chip a PlayStation 2.
Issues surrounding intellectual property (IP) set the legal agenda this year, and the trend is likely to remain hot in 2004, according to Melbourne based IT lawyer Erhan Karabardak.
The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission has decried a ruling by the Federal Court that mod chips designed to circumvent copy protection features on gaming consoles are illegal.
Local Internet service providers (ISPs) have doused reported attempts by a US digital copyright solutions company to force them to terminate the Internet contracts of customers suspected of breaching copyright rules.
