Australian users remain under threat, however.
Electronic Frontiers Australia Inc. welcomed the United States decision. Australia has no constitutional protection for free speech, but this is still a boost for our campaign to stop the NSW proposals. The NSW Attorney-General has so far refused to consult with the Internet community, but we hope he will at least examine the CDA judgement. Since the physical location of Internet hardware is largely irrelevant to Internet users, the United States decision has more direct consequences for Australia. And Australian companies have somewhere they can move their data and businesses if regulation here is too burdensome.
