    Isn't about Internet Censorship, but damn well has to do with the privacy of anyone.

    Travellers to be searched for porn


    Australian customs officers have been given new powers to search incoming travellers' laptops and mobile phones for pornography.

    Are they kidding? So much for public consultation on major privacy issues. Where will this end, seriously.

    Geordie Guy from EFA was supposed to be on as well but they've dropped him with no explanation as to why. Smells fishy to me.
    Did anyone watch this? Keen to find out what was said.

    The author of the article appears to have not done her homework by allowing Conroy to get away with the claim that Telstra and iiNet support the policy when in fact they don't.

    His claim that 85% of ISPs support the policy is completely false, too. Most of them are opposed to it.

    Great journalism ay?

    You know, I can't wait for the day that this does get put into effect, and then they realise what a dumb mistake it was in the first place, and fire that dumbass for putting his own agendas forward without even listening to what the vast majority of Australians, and even people overseas, think is a complete waste of taxpayers money.

    That's the problem, it's KRudd as well as Conroy that's pushing this. Conroy is a Puppet, KRudd is pulling his strings
