Seven Hollywood studios including Paramount, Sony, Twentieth Century Fox,
Universal, Warner Bros and Disney have
teamed up to sue iiNet, Australia's third largest ISP. iiNet is accused of
doing little to stop its subscribers from sharing copyright works via
BitTorrent. The companies state that they are suing iiNet for 'failing to take
reasonable steps, including enforcing its own terms and conditions, to prevent
known unauthorized use of copies of the companies' films and TV programs by
iiNet's customers via its network.' The ISP denies the accusations.
