<div dir="ltr"><div>Something that's just been picked up on the ITPA forums (was SAGE-AU) is that the section of the Data Retention FAQs that talked about use in copyright enforcement has now been removed, previously it said:<br><br>> **Will data retention be used for copyright enforcement?**<br>> <br>>
The Telecommunications (Interception and Access) Act 1979 only allows
access for limited purposes,<br>> such as criminal law enforcement matters.
Breach of copyright is generally a civil law wrong.<br>> The Act will
preclude access to telecommunications data retained solely for the
purpose of<br>> complying with the mandatory data retention scheme for the
purposes of civil litigation. <br><br><br></div><a href="https://www.ag.gov.au/NationalSecurity/DataRetention/Pages/Frequentlyaskedquestions.aspx">https://www.ag.gov.au/NationalSecurity/DataRetention/Pages/Frequentlyaskedquestions.aspx</a><br><div><a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20160428205854/https://www.ag.gov.au/NationalSecurity/DataRetention/Pages/Frequentlyaskedquestions.aspx#RetentionCopyright">http://web.archive.org/web/20160428205854/https://www.ag.gov.au/NationalSecurity/DataRetention/Pages/Frequentlyaskedquestions.aspx#RetentionCopyright</a></div></div>
