Who the hell is advising my government on Internet matters? They seem to know fuck all about it.



IN an unprecedented move, Australia's communications regulator has threatened to fine a company up to $11,000 a day for indirectly leaking part of its top-secret list of banned internet web pages.

The action by the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) has wide ramifications for media companies, online publishers, web hosting suppliers and any organisation that publishes feedback from readers or customers on their website.

On March 10, ACMA issued Sydney web hosting company Bulletproof Networks with an "interim link-deletion notice" for allowing its customer, the Whirlpool internet community website, to post the link to an anti-abortion web page blacklisted by the regulator.

I still don't see why we aren't at least allowed a list of blacklisted sites.


Well, that settles my vote for the next election anyway. I'll be giving it to the party with the best policy about how to go about getting rid of this if they go ahead with it. My internet is already terribly slow at times, it doesn't need to be any worse.

No matter how curious you get, do not click links that warn you they're disturbing...

Wasn't that bad tbh.

Besides, pretty sure most aborted foetuses are done much earlier in development.

That about sums it up. Aging population tbh.


I'd be less opposed to England's system of filtering. Would work alright methinks.

It's fairly typical anti-abortion propaganda.

I have been on wikileaks and found a few "secret" lists from other countries

but this list is bullshit.

Who edits it? Who can add to it? Who deems appropriate content?

Anyone who opposes it will be asked "so you support kiddie porn?"

I did a relatively in-depth analysis of the filter to see whether or not it was a good idea.  Conclusions:

Conroy has been vague and his comments misleading.
No real definite guidelines for classification.
Will not stop child pornography.
Will not prevent child access of prohibited materials.
Will not stop spread of viruses/malicious material.
No impact on bullying.
Costs too much money and manpower.
Slows internet unacceptably for current infrastructure.
Mandatory implementation means list of users choosing not to use adult filter - liability present.
Attempts to implement filtering of emails, non-http protocols such as im, bit-torrent.

In short, massive fail.

Precisely. Couldn't say it better myself.

The bulk of abortions are natural and happen before the fetus has any reconisable features. Then comes the morning after pill. etc. etc.


Abortions of a fetus at that stage of development are relatively rare.

It's called a partial birth abortion right.
That doesn't change my statement, they want to show you want happens to that little accident.

So basically you're saying the propaganda is presenting the images most likely to sway observers toward their point of view....

That's what propaganda is for.

More than that bro.

There was an online poll done last year where 98% of people who responded were against the filter.

One being me.

Ruddkipz is an alright bloke. I thought Labor would be shaky at first but at least we're not officially in a recession yet, due to his fiscal policy implementations. Thats what I like about him.

What I dont like is this censorshit crap. As stated by Panda, it wont do anything.

Liberal > Labor.

You don't know what the Liberal policy for the internet included do you? It was at much slower speeds than the Labor plan.

I do agree that the filter is a shit idea, but everywhere else Labor > Liberals.

It's NSW state Labor that is in a total mess atm.
