The Wall Street Journal asks, “How could a democratic government consider cutting off Internet access for people who haven’t been convicted of a copyright violation? [...] New Zealand changed its copyright law to be in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act in the U.S., [...] In the U.S., it was assumed that repeat infringers would be people who are tried in the court of law. And in New Zealand, though similar language was transposed, that was not the way it was read.”
