Is termination of internet users’ accounts by an ISP a proportionate response to copyright infringement?

In light of the significant case of Roadshow Films Pty Ltd v iiNet Ltd (No3) [2010] FCA 24; [2011] FCAFC 23; [2012] HCA 16, this paper examines the courts’ responses to the question posed above highlighting the uncertainty in this area of law. It argues that this case demonstrates that the existing copyright laws governing ISPs’ liability in Australia is inadequate and needs legislative reform.
