| Subject: University fines students for pirating movies, TV shows, then keeps the loot that rightly belongs to copyright victims Wed Nov 19, 2014 12:57 am | |
| An Australian university is issuing fines to pirating students and using the money raised for campus facilities instead of returning it to the copyright owners.
Students at the University of NSW can be fined up to $1000 for downloading television shows and movies that infringe copyright using the institution's free Wi-Fi network.
The university also disconnects guilty students from its network for as long as a semester.
