Government to censor the Internet

[SkyWarp91]

update: according to Accel next month's filtering has been put on-hold. Looks like Conroy has to put it off, AGAIN

Also a question, if Conroy was to be removed from office would there be a difference?

This is just plain embarrassing that I hear about this through the news channels rather than an internal memo / email.

I'm not involved in any way with our internet business, but it speaks volumes about the level of trust directors and the like have in their staff. I just found out 30 mins ago about the NBN deal; an hour after I read it in the press!

I don't think the policy would be immediately dropped, but I think you'd find that very few ministers would be willing to pick it up considering how unpopular it is.
Senator Stephen Conroy is just too stubborn to drop it, which is an annoying quality of his because it has helped in certain ways with regards to the NBN - I'm still not a fan of his though.

Yeah, that's crap man but it is great news for the NBN!

And SkyWarp, do you have any links regarding the delay you mentioned? I've not found anything about this anywhere.

Ha, typical. They won't tell their staff until the last possible moment.
