  Australian Government Want ISPs to Adopt Anti-Piracy Code
  
  By Ernesto from TorrentFreak
  
  The Australian Government has proposed new copyright regulations which require copyright holders and carriage service providers to adopt a voluntary code to identify and deter online piracy. The new measures must address the ongoing piracy concerns but should not be too costly or burdensome for ISPs, the proposal clarifies.

  Pirates Are Not Easily Deterred by Viruses and Malware, Study Finds
  
  By Ernesto from TorrentFreak
  
  Nearly 40% of all Singaporeans download or stream movies, TV-shows, and sports events for free, a new study reveals. The primary reason to turn to pirate sources is that they're free. Although most pirates know that they may run into viruses and malware, the lure of free content is simply too strong.

  SceneAccess has thrown in the towel. Its admins pulled the plug on the private tracker after operating for more than a decade. According to a public notice, the decision was the result of dwindling donations, which made it hard to pay the bills.

  Last week the world's leading YouTube ripping site shut down after reaching a settlement with several major record labels and its representatives. The shutdown of YouTube-MP3 followed a lawsuit in the US, but many music industry insiders feel that it shouldn't have got that far.

  No, Google Drive is Definitely Not The New Pirate Bay
  
  By Andy from TorrentFreak
  
  This week, citing a crackdown on torrent sites, numerous articles declared Google Drive and similar cloud storage services to be "The New Pirate Bay". While such platforms can indeed facilitate the distribution of content, there should be no illusion that they offer anything like the decentralization and corporate detachment offered by BitTorrent-based sharing.
