Campaign to Stop File-Sharers Being ?Guilty Upon Accusation?

Next month, New Zealand is scheduled to implement Section 92 of the Copyright Amendment Act. The controversial act provides ?Guilt Upon Accusation?, which means that if a file-sharer is simply accused of copyright infringement, they are immediately guilty. The punishment - summary Internet disconnection.




Responses I found in a forum:

Just download a phone directory and spam everyone with generated accusations. They would either have to disconnect the whole country or rethink this utter stupidity.

Why not just spam the members of the legislature with the accusations? After two or three months of near-constant Internet service interruptions to their offices, I'm sure they would get the hint.
 
so if they're going to instantly disconnect one's internet when this happens, what will they do when half of NZ has no internet and internet provider out there goes under lol.

 
step 1 Get list of the names of the MPs that voted in favour
Step 2 Accuse all of them of pirating
Step 3 watch law get dropped in a hurry
