UK High Court To Review ConDem Coalition Government Digital Economy Act

BT and TalkTalk have won a judicial review of the Digital Economy Act, which they say falls foul of EU laws on privacy and internet service providers’ responsibilities. The High Court granted the judicial review, which was requested in July, on Wednesday. TalkTalk regulatory chief Andrew Heaney welcomed the news. “We are very pleased that the court has recognised that our concerns about the copyright-infringement provisions in the Digital Economy Act should be considered in a full hearing,” said Heaney in a statement. “The act was rushed through Parliament in the ‘wash-up’ with only six percent of MPs attending the brief debate and has very serious flaws. The provisions to try to reduce illegal file-sharing are unfair, won’t work and will potentially result in millions of innocent customers who have broken no law suffering and having their privacy invaded,” continued Heaney. The Conservatives backed the Digital Economy Act, but the Liberal Democrats took a strong stance against it. However, despite the Lib Dems being part of the coalition government, that opposition has not translated into any official attempt to reverse the law. Judicial review may give the government the chance to drop this heavy-handed approach to copyright enforcement.
