It is the publishers who are using this legislation and who are saying " we are unable to sell you this book because you live in Australia". But the legislation does not prevent 1 person individually buying it for their own use. And no, the publishers don't have a say in what falls under copyright but they can 'use' or 'misinterpret' the legislation to correctly, or otherwise, do what they want.
