If iiNet loses the piracy lawsuit, the ramifications for all Australian ISPs will be immense, forcing all to spy on their users and become online policemen. It will wipe out online privacy, slow down the Internet, impede the free flow of information, impose massive costs on ISPs, impose massive costs on users, and put broadband progress back by 10 years in Australia.
