I am very worried about what this government is doing, I truly am.
To me it seems that the government wants to know exactly what people are doing every nminute of the day. Net filter, customs declaration for porn, web snooping, all seem to be leading away from privacy of anyone. Yet they attack Google and Facebook for their privacy breaches. This government is a shambles, and makes this country look bad.
Suprise suprise, they will dance around the issue because they know how much the public will look down upon it. Incompetent morons, Conroy and Wong.
And the government expects that the ISP will fork out the money for it? Yea right. And even if the government decides to foot the bill, or partial, it will give us an even bigger deficit. I think most, if not all, ISP's will oppose this idea because it will eat into their profits if it could end up in the millions.
They've been against this sort of thing for many years.
Some smaller ISPs might have to close doors if this (and the damn filter) happens because of costs, but bigger ones will simply pass on the costs to the consumers.
