Anti-Piracy Groups Target Australia’s Children

Anti-piracy and entertainment industry group acronyms are commonplace here on TorrentFreak – MPAA, RIAA, IFPI, MPA, BPI – they go on and on and on. Since we clearly don’t have anywhere near enough, today we can introduce our readers to a new one. According to a new group called Intellectual Property Awareness Foundation ( IPAF ), it has been created by the Australian movie and TV industries to “promote the value of the industry by raising awareness, understanding and appreciation of intellectual property, and its role and value in society.” Members of IPAF include Australia Federation Against Copyright Theft (AFACT), Motion Picture Association (MPA), Motion Picture Distributors Association of Australia, Australian Visual Software Distributors Association and various cinema owners and DVD rental outlets such as Blockbuster.
