You realise that if you pick up your phone and make the huge effort of ringing your ISP - You can get them to turn the filter off right?

I sense so much fail in this.

1: Almost every site there is has some time had/has porn on it. They'd basically have to block everything but MySpace and LiveJournal
2: /b/ would certainly get blocked. Massive anonymous ausfag attack on all Australian ISPs.
3: THEY AIN'T GONNA MAKE IT

pool: Hello, I'd like you to turn the porn filter off.
ISP: Ok, we need you to fill out the forms A10 G22-217, pages 1-15 and return it personally to the nearest ISP office. When you've done that and we've sent the sheets to verification in Sydney, wich will take 3-5 weeks, we will be able to shut the filter down within six months.

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

A report by the Australia Institute in 2003 showed 84 per cent of boys and 60 per cent of girls using the internet had experienced unwanted exposure to sexual material.
And what about the 96% of boys using the internet that experienced wanted exposure to sexual material? Think of them too!

yer theres no way this will get passed... the government could expect about 10 000 000 signatures on a petition against it (in other words an uprising of all the men in australia)... and the army would be more loyal to porn than to that softcock Rudd

EDIT: and i love how u guys are calling all australians convicts lol... i know ur prob joking (be fucking better be) cuz i mean only around 22% of australians have any ancestors who came to australia as british convicts

No offense but its probably so terrible for you because your like 16 and you would have to have your mom call in so you can look at 4chan....

Honestly like you said these things block so much shit any one who didn't have kids to worry about would likely want it removed. I doubt there would be much awkwardness since those damn things are so prohibitive requesting it off would likely be fairly common. This isn't imposed by the ISP, and they would most likely rather offer their customers what they want vs what the government wants so I doubt it would be that difficult to get it turned off.

It sounds like the filter would be a little annoying, and I would probably vote against something like that (all though to be honest looking at how damn stupid some of the kids on this website are and what they look at it may not be a terrible idea) but its not much more then an inconvenience...

Well the internet bill is under my name, and it's not entirely because of 4chan. If I pay money to own a service, I want to use all of it. I wouldn't want to be happily browsing and then the shit filter detects something and says "no lol".

If/when it gets implemented I will ring up (not my mother) and ask them to turn it off. NO ONE steals my megahurtz.

As i recall, the UK tried to implement something very similar to this and it failed hard. This was a couple of years ago and there have been no repercussions from that.

And stop trying to prevent children from watching porn. I was about ten when i discovered porn and at twelve when, the internet became affordable, i hit that shit like you wouldn't believe. It hasn't harmed me any. I fail to see how porn can even do any damage to a kid unless he is so right wing he flies in circles.

Some people just fail at life and have no idea wtf they are talking about (see anyone trying to ban games/movies/music). It doesn't work and there is no evidence to back up claims that any of this has adverse effects on children. They are simply looking for a scapegoat, and because a lot of parents have no idea about any of this, they jump on the failwagon.

That's my opinion anyway.

Supposedly, according to the new "porn is bad" approach, people say that it creates an image for a child that a woman is just an object and something to be "pumped".

I can see where they get it from, but its pretty much crap unless the kid actually pays attention to anything else but the bodily parts and the moaning "yeah yeah". I highly doubt a woman is going to walk up to a guy and ask "Have you looked at porn? If you have, then you think I am just an object of pleasure, fuck off"

Pffft... That's the problem with censoring stuff out.. Sure it would sound good if they only blocked out harmful stuff like child porn, but you must realize they then have more control than is wanted. What's next on the list? Anything the government doesnt like can be blocked out easily..
No, filters shouldn't be set, and especially not for something like porn and violence. 90% of the internet contains porn and violence >.< And parents should watch their young children anyway if they want to be on the interwebs. Above a certain age it's ok anyway, I don't see what harm it could do to your child watching it (ok maybe dick chop but thats your own choice to watch )
