Submission + - The pirate land of Australia

ccozan writes: "The Internet Industry Association of Australia is rushing to pass a law that would incriminate allmost everybody. From the release:'a family who holds a birthday picnic in a place of public entertainment (for example, the grounds of a zoo) and sings 'Happy Birthday' in a manner that can be heard by others, risks an infringement notice carrying a fine of up to $1320. If they make a video recording of the event, they risk a further fine for the possession of a device for the purpose of making an infringing copy of a song.'. Anyone knows an alternative to "Happy Birthday" song?"
