"Do you know that sharing a meme in this country makes you a criminal?
That's right. Condescending Wonka, Li'll Bub and Ryan Gosling's hey girl
are all crimes under Australian copyright law."
Good to see Dan Ilic making some noise on this issue. So far
Attorney-General Brandis has made it clear he's far more sympathetic to
the interests of foreign rightsholders with power and money than to
Australian creators or citizens.
