ABSTRACT
In recent years, the application of Internet and digital technology has become increasingly ‘ubiquitous, embedded, and animated’.1 Ever-improving Internet technology and digital convergence have changed the traditional rules of distribution and dissemination of information and copyright works. Recent technological changes have enabled copyright users to efficiently access and disseminate copyrighted works and information online. However, these advances in technology have also facilitated copyright piracy,2 and enabled unauthorised works to be spread via various media (as outlined in the previous chapter).3
