This was just sent to me by a friend of mine in Australia and I thought it a worthy enough cause to post it unedited on my blog here.

It's unfortunate that the labour party is still pushing the internet filtering technology, it will end up a huge waste of tax payers money and ultimately fail.I sent an email to my federal member previously pointing out this and other issues, and he forwarded it to the good senator. I got back a load of political rhetoric in reply which never answered or addressed anything I pointed out.
The EFF Australia has setup a website with even more information on how this will be a waste of money, and what further implications on this will mean.

Everyone should be made aware of the bigger picture and how all the money will be wasted to appease a handful of Family First senators, and Family First's agenda for the country is quite scary so why the Labour party is pandering to them is anyone's guess.

ReplyDeleteWhirlpool is this fantastic website just dedicated to carrier/isp/voip discussions (actually surprising the USA doesn't have something similar with all the issues/discussions about bit torrent throttling going on).
