How would they even go about doing that?

Pff, what a waste of time, I'll stop pirating when there's a service worth using.

...this just frustrates me to the point where I can't come up with anything useful to add beyond: "Who's for a Federal Bi-Election? - Conroy, you're banned from competing too!".

Here's a very interesting read if you have the time. Pretty much what the majority of us feel IMO.

Yep, sums it up nicely. The politicians only want to enforce things not from a moral point of view but rather pressure from lobbying corporations.

I say and predict that democracy is now an illusion for the common people. The world is now ran by corporations and the politicians merely their puppets.

Compounded with the comments of new NBN chairman Ziggy-a-man-of-failures-Switkowski.. http://www.gizmodo.com.au/2014/02/nb...any-time-soon/
Movie companies, Foxtel and Telstra seem to be on easy street.

It makes me so frustrated when I come back from overseas on a holiday. Not because the holiday is over but what other countries are doing and Australia is standing still - or going backwards.

I'm still gonna say it. We need someone like V to bring the government crashing down.

Australians tend to be more passive aggressive. We complain a lot but the revolutionary spirit is not really there. The stand will always be 'This sucks but whatyagonnado..'

House prices are ridiculous - Politician's fault
Cost of living is ridiculous - Politician's fault.
Our road and transport infrastructure is horrible - Politician's fault.
Our Telecommunications infrastructure is not even 3rd world - Politician's fault.

All because for the last 30 years (at least), politicians are not representing the people but monopolists or big corporations. Labor tends to side with Unions but they are also corrupt as shit and one of the reasons why we have such high wages which is taken advantage of by corporations pushing up the cost of living so high and causing jobs to go overseas.
