	Australian copyright law - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Australian copyright law is based on the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works and defines copyright in Australia.
		The Australian Copyright Act 1968 (as amended), is the national copyright legislation, inclusive of additions contained in the U.S.-Australia Free Trade Agreement (FTA).
		Australian copyright law does, however, have a number of additional specific exceptions which permit uses which may fall outside of both fair dealing and fair use.

		Australian laws on copyright are intended to conform with principles established by various international conventions and treaties.
		Copyright owners in particular see the current spate of reform as the opportunity to shape a revised copyright law providing new rights for owners and a reduced capacity for users to access and use copyright material.

	Robbery under arms
		Similarly, the Australian Digital Alliance has called for the creation of a legislative defence to infringement to cover situations where the author of a work is unknown and the user has made reasonable efforts to locate and notify the copyright owner [66].
		A copyright owner seeking to impose liability on an accused circumventor must demonstrate a reasonable relationship between the circumvention at issue and a use relating to a property right for which the Copyright Act permits the copyright owner to withhold authorization — as well as notice that authorization was withheld.
		Although happy to adopt many aspects of U.S. law, the copyright owners are adamant that the adoption of an open–ended U.S. defence of fair use would somehow compromise the integrity of the Australian legislation [175].
