Animal welfare in the animal agriculture industry: Copyright law is being used to hide alleged animal abuse.

"...The Australian animal advocacy organisation, Farm Transparency Project, seeks to “force industry transparency and educate consumers” about routine operations in the animal agriculture industry. "

" ...Ag-gag” (agricultural gag) laws...refers to laws whose common feature is to “keep evidence of the unflattering, and sometimes criminal, practices of farms and slaughterhouses from public view”.

"...The reality is that farmed animal welfare is woefully under-regulated. Scandals surrounding the mistreatment of animals are regularly uncovered by activists, journalists and whistleblowers, rather than in the course of standard compliance processes".

"So the High Court must now decide whether the law should allow for such vision to be made public, potentially uncovering grave suffering, or keep it safely out of sight." >>
