It has been an eventful year in the telco space to say the least! Here's are some of the highlights.

The telco industry group is seeking to be 'a friend of the court' at the High Court hearing and has ambitions to find an industry-led solution to content theft online by early next year

The Australian Federation Against Copyright Theft (AFACT) has decided to appeal to the High Court after its copyright infringement case against iiNet was squashed by the Full Bench of the Federal Court.

There are some disputes that just can't be settled amicably, here are some of the most high-impact court cases that have made headlines recently

On February 4, presiding judge on the landmark copyright infringement case, Justice Cowdroy, ruled in favour of iiNet, stating it did not authorise piracy activities conducted by its users.

Fellow ISPs have spent the day congratulating iiNet on its court victory over the Australian Federation Against Copyright Theft (AFACT).

The legal stoush between the Australian Federation Against Copyright Theft (AFACT) and iiNet (ASX: IIN) will cost the ISP $4 million.

Attempts by AFACT investigators to incriminate iiNet of copyright infringement do not accurately reflect consumers and are therefore flawed, the ISP’s barrister, Richard Cobden SC, claimed in his closing address.
