Apologies if there is an earlier thread on this. Mods, merge the threads if you feel appropriate.

What are people's thoughts on the Australian government trying to censor the internet?
I trust the government's filter will not get in the way of internet usage for the every-day australian

-_- i should have known people would use this thread to discuss pornography sites -_- (edit)

I mean seriously look at this guy's fucking subjects:

"Mathematics Advanced, Biology, Geography, Legal Studies, Society and Culture."

It's obvious we're not dealing with some latter day political genius
i do most of his subjects :(

I love how Conroy labels anyone who opposes this filter as kiddy porn lovers.
Clearly he knows shit about the potential effects of the filter.
Why not just put money to stop actual distributors of such material? Rather than taking a whole "lol we no lyk wat u see on net so we blok it lol" stance.

Exactly.

I have no problem with them using the internet to find cp distributors and deal with them that way. Then they might actually get something done, rather than just putting a bandaid over a bullet wound and hoping it all goes away.

Do you guys think that Conroy actually believes in this stuff? I mean, most politicians are actually pretty bright. You'd think they'd get the hint.

I get the feeling he's only defending it because he has to.

Well you're an idiot then. Not a single ISP level network engineer agrees with you, and I'm inclined to take their side rather than the shilling of some Labor party hack who doesn't even know what censorship means.
well forgive me for having an optimistic view - i dont go around threads winging porn sites being blocked. thats the difference between me and the pathetic poeple on this thread... your a fool for considering me a fool - an optimistic view doesnt mean i dont oppose part of this policy. calm down..

Here's what I think will happen...

One way or another this will eventually happen.

And then Internet Australia wide will slow down considerably... and everyone will learn how to use proxy's... including businesses... and the general populace of Australia will be like "why the fuck did we ever get this in the first place?"

It get's removed after people realise it was a dumb waste of money... Rudd gets remembered for 100 years as the dumb shit who brought in Internet censorship and not for the good stuff he did...

end of story...
