American heavyweights in the music, movie, television and broadband have agreed upon six warnings or alerts of copyright infringing in the United States, to New Zealand's three.

InternetNZ is hailing the French Constitutional Council's decision to strike down a  a proposed ‘three-strikes’ law for copyright infringers as unconstitutional.

The controversial law, known as Hadopi, an acronym for the body established to police the law, would have cut off Internet access to those who repeatedly download copyrighted content illegally, much as the controversial Section 92a Act proposed to do in New Zealand before being junked by the National Party.
