It does not worry me except our goveernment is making noises about censoring websites
Not sure if it just not fees paid or good taste coming to the fore

By your local server do you mean your in Thailand or is Australia censoring the internet?
I have not been redirected to that government page blocking any of the gay boards for a long time. I do get it with some porno sites and some political web pages but it funny, I just hit reload and most times it loads. If not the proxies do work. There was one site by some university students that criticized the Cultural Ministry and that required a proxy so it not just criticisms of you know who.

Is Australia a totalitarian state now lonelywombat, like China or Thailand?Originally Posted by lonelywombat
You are not aware that Australia is creating and putting in place a massive filtering system of the internet to rival what the Chinese already have? It was recently decided that grown women in OZ with small breasts cannot have their photos published since someone may mistake them for children.
This is all to protect the children, you know. Don't you want to protect the children???
Even satirical cartoons are now illegal according to the courts in Austraila. One man was just convicted and sentenced to a year in jail and put on the sex registry for having a Bart Simpson drawing.

Yes it will be an election issue and Senator Conroy will not back off. I doubt if he will survive as most of his big ideas are coming unstuck
The first reversal was only a day ago in South Australia.

Sweet... that's a great tool. Thanks.
Stephen Conroy is a clueless fuckstick.
It's absurd a Minister as religiously motivated and clueless (on the digital world) as he is would be given the communications/digital economy portfolio. I wonder if he realises millions of people see him as unbelievably ignorant and detached from what he's managing. He's done nothing to prove he understands the dynamics of it at all.
He is deeply religious too... part of that Opus Dei sect (the crazy one featured in Di Vinci Code).
One of my friends emailed me today and said Conroy was reported as saying he wants Australia to folow the same Internet standards as Thailand. Surely you're not saying that's a bad thing?

What's worse than him and Rudd being in charge is the other side failed to sustain the two most intelligent candidates (Costello and Turnbull) and have put another conservative religious f*ckstick (Abbot) in as leader.
Unfortunately, it isn't the work of just one politician in Australian. It's part of a worldwide trend towards Orwellian totalitarianism. It's coming soon to the USA. Check out the Cyber Security act.
