  • Address to the South Australian Press Club 13 July 2012
    ADDRESS TO THE SOUTH AUSTRALIAN PRESS CLUB 13 JULY 2012 YOU CAN’T HOLD BACK THE TIDE Ladies and gentlemen, historians give differing accounts of the story that I’m about to tell; some say it never happened at all, some say it happened elsewhere, but even if it’s apocryphal, it is nevertheless a story for our times. In the year 1028 or thereabouts, Canute, King of Denmark, England, Norway and parts of Sweden set up his throne on the tidal flats of Thorney Island, site of the current day Westminster in London, pointed his royal sceptre to the tide and uttered those immortal words: “I command thee not to rise”. Stubbornly, the tide refused to obey, and Canute’s chair, feet and royal cloak got duly soaked. When we hear this story as children we think of it as a story of human arrogance and folly. Not even Kings have that much power; Canute must have been a right royal fool. But when we hear it as adults, we know that Canute, a canny king, was reproving his courtiers and teaching them a lesson. Wise leaders, he is saying, know their power is limited, so you shouldn’t ask them to try to do the impossible. Canute was smart. But let’s assume for a moment he was truly dumb. What if he had given stopping the tide a good go? It’s possible. The technology was widely available. He could have set up a tidal review. Built a wall. And put it under the control of a publicly funded tidal regulatory body.

  • Public Interest Journalism Initiative and Judith Neilson Institute
    PUBLIC INTEREST JOURNALISM INITIATIVE and THE JUDITH NEILSON INSTITUTE FOR JOURNALISM AND IDEAS joint submission to the AUSTRALIAN COMPETITION & CONSUMER COMMISSION’S Mandatory news media barGaininG code Concepts paper 5 June 2020 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Following a summer of bushfires, a global pandemic has demonstrated not only the importance of reliable news media - to provide accurate information and to bind communities – but also their vulnerability. The impact on news publishers and broadcasters has been devastating. Less than a year since the ACCC handed down the Final Report of its Digital Platforms Inquiry, more than a hundred news titles have ceased publishing, and hundreds of journalists have lost their jobs. Without intervention, more news businesses will close this year when JobKeeper payments end. Against this backdrop, the task of developing the Mandatory News Media Bargaining Code (Code) to ensure a fair value exchange between news media businesses and Google, Facebook and their subsidiary platforms is urgent and important. By redressing the imbalances identified by the ACCC,1 the Code has the potential to ensure that those who invest in original journalistic content are fairly rewarded by digital platforms that derive significant direct and indirect value from it - and also that there is due recognition of the direct and indirect value that, in turn, news media businesses derive from digital platforms. The timetable is ambitious, with the ACCC and the Government moving quickly. However, we consider that a pragmatic, workable Code can be developed in the prescribed timeframe, including with certain features that might be considered 'interim'. To this end, PIJI and JNI submit that the Code should: 1.

  • Wireless Broadband Technologies for Regional and Rural Australia a Last-Mile Perspective
    WIRELESS BROADBAND WIRELESS BROADBAND TECHNOLOGIES FOR REGIONAL AND RURAL AUSTRALIA A LAST-MILE PERSPECTIVE AHM Razibul Islam, Department of Engineering, Macquarie University Dr. Niloufer Selvadurai, Department of Business Law, Macquarie University Professor Graham Town, Department of Engineering, Macquarie University INTRODUCTION The deployment of wireless broadband networks to deliver high-speed broadband services to regional and rural Australia is increasingly being examined as a viable alternative to the deploy- ment of wired technology. Whilst last-mile connectivity (i.e. the connection which links the end- user to the network backbone) can be very expensive for carriage service providers deploying wired technology, the deployment of wireless technologies, typically characterised by lower capital and operational costs, can provide a more effective solution to the connectivity problems presently experienced by these remote demographics. It is recognised that the provision of high speed broadband is critical to communities in re- gional and rural areas as it serves to expand economic capacity and stimulate commerce. However, accessibility and availability of broadband networks are generally lower in rural areas than the urban areas in both developed and developing countries due to low population density and poor economies of scale. Recent developments in wireless network technology however have the po- tential to provide access to broadband technology in regional and rural communities at reasonable cost. Hence, wireless technology has the potential to empower local communities and expand economic capacity and commerce in regional and rural areas. The central purpose of this paper is to explore the alternatives presently available for the deployment of wireless broadband networks for regional and rural Australia.

  • Matthew Rimmer Professor of Intellectual Property and Innovation Law Faculty of Law Queensland University of Technology
    AUGUST 2016 ROCK AGAINST THE TRANS-PACIFIC PARTNERSHIP: COPYRIGHT LAW, THE CREATIVE INDUSTRIES, AND INTERNET FREEDOM DR MATTHEW RIMMER PROFESSOR OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND INNOVATION LAW FACULTY OF LAW QUEENSLAND UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY Queensland University of Technology 1 Executive Summary This submission provides a critical analysis of the copyright sections of Chapter 18 of the Trans-Pacific Partnership on intellectual property. In National Interest Analysis, the Australian Government asserts that the Trans-Pacific Partnership is a merely capitulation of existing agreements: The TPP Intellectual Property Chapter is consistent with Australia’s existing intellectual property regime and will not require any changes to Australia’s legislation. Minor regulatory changes relating to encoded broadcasts will be required to extend to Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei Darussalam and New Zealand the benefits in Part VAA of the Copyright Act 1968 that Australia already extends to parties to the International Convention for the Protection of Performers, Producers of Phonograms and Broadcasting Organizations 1961 (the Rome Convention). The TPP does not require an increase in the term of copyright protection in Australia, nor any other changes to Australia’s copyright regime, including with respect to technological protection measures. The TPP standard with respect to ISPs is consistent with Australia’s existing ISP liability regime and will not require ISPs to monitor, report or penalise copyright infringement. However, such an assertion is not well-founded. A close examination of the Trans-Pacific Partnership reveals that the agreement has obligations above and beyond existing agreements – such as the TRIPS Agreement 1994 and the Australia-United States Free Trade Agreement 2004.
