I appreciate that. It doesn't help but it doesn' thurt. Part of the problem is that I am pretty sure someone with some authority said, at some point, that the were going to scrap the law. These situations get confusing and, like you pointed out, it can appear that the stories reporting the inaccuracy are the ones in the wrong.It's the nature of the Web, it's embarrassing to get caught up in, but it does happen. More often than usual these days it seems…

If it helps, you certainly weren't the only one. While some enterprising twitterers confirmed with NZ lobbyists and the NZ gov't that the NBR story was inaccurate last Thursday (eg http://twitter.com/nzlemming/status/1665677557, http://twitter.com/lawgeeknz/status/1665699384), others kept missing this and reporting it as true (http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20090430/14000…..) and even speculating as to what the new law should cover (http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/news/2009/05….. made me wonder whether the reports of inaccuracy were themselves inaccurate. Chalk it up to yet another instance of a meme surviving in the blogosphere even after it's been refuted…Thanks for the offer, but no need for a hat tip…just keep up the great work!

Thanks for the link. This one is really frustrating as it broke mid-way through the week, was repeated counlessly and even this morning was seemingly authentic. I'm stunned it took nearly a week for this to come out. It sounds to me as if there is (or at least was) some kind of disagreement about what is going on.On that note, I'll take my lumps. I've bookmarked it for the next show and it will be in tomorrow's three count. If you want a hat tip, let me know what site to point it to!

I'm a long-time listener, first time caller FYI, the story about New Zealand ceasing all amendments to its Copyright Act and engaging in a total re-vamp has been determined to be inaccurate: http://computerworld.co.nz/news.nsf/news/593AE7…..EN
