New Zealand Internet Blackout

The New Zealand Internet Blackout was an online protest organised by the Creative Freedom Foundation NZ (CFFNZ) against changes to copyright law in New Zealand. It constituted two separate blackouts: one in 2009 to protest Section 92A of the Copyright (New Technologies) Amendment Act 2008; and another in 2011 to protest the Copyright (Infringing File Sharing) Amendment Act 2011, although the CFFNZ did not take part in this one.
