    Oh I know it won't be over, I just doubt that this thing will actually work in the end, not that I ever thought it would anyhow. They want to put it in, and they will.

    Only if the on-the-fence Libs support it.

    Which is why if you're against it you, and anyone else opposed to the policy, should contact the Libs and express your dissatisfaction with the idea and state you won't vote for them if they support the policy.

    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.

    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.
