Mass Piracy Lawsuits Come To Australia 183
daria42 writes "Remember when the RIAA started sending tens of thousands of letters to Americans who it had alleged had infringed copyright online, trying to get them all to settle out of court? Yeah, good times. Well that style of mass-lawsuit has now arrived in Australia, courtesy of a new company which dubs itself the 'Movie Rights Group.' The company is currently seeking to obtain details of at least 9,000 Australians it alleges has infringed copyright on one film, and it has a number of other films in the pipeline. Sounds like a good time to know an IP lawyer."

By the way, here's an excerpt of Lacuna: Demons of the Void in case you're interested:
...Zeldar was the chief torturer of the underworld, and he enjoyed sodomy. The latest capture, a burly and hairy barbarian named Bril, was bent over a beam with his ankles and wrists restrained by rusty but stong metal braces which could not be bent or broken by the hands of man or beast.
"Prepare your anus," Zeldar snarled through a crooked smirk. Bril grunted and struggled, desperately attempting to free himself from the ordeal. Zeldar's penis was conical, long and tapered; it was well-suited for torturous sodomy because its thin tip could swell up to the size of an Earth fruit known as an orange. "Ung, unh...uhhhhhhhh," Bril grunted and squirmed as the lengthy member wormed its way into the tail of his colon. Zeldar was a humanoid demon with a hairless head and long, razor-sharp teeth who looked like Baraka who was in an Earth video game called Mortal Kombat. Zeldar engaged his swollen tip and Bril Screamed. "Ahhhhhhh, you bastard!" Bril clenched every compromised muscle in his lower colon to resist the swelling of Zeldar's bulbous head, so much that Zeldar was forced to unplug himself. When this happened, Bril's feces were ejected all over Zeldar in a concussive blast, with much force. The event sounded like a Human loading an Earth shotgun full of mud and firing it at a brick wall.
"Bah," Zeldar grunted, disgusted and humiliated, "I'll be back for you." Zeldar stuck two of his fingers in the crap smattered all over his abdomen and chest and flicked it across the floor as he exited the chamber, leaving Bril squirming but relieved.
