It'll be a dark, dark day in Australian history if this ill-conceived plan to "protect the children" ever becomes implemented and affects every single Australian with Internet access. The proposal has been widely panned from IT experts and the general public, and this so-called "live trial" (with participating ISPs still left in the dark about the details) is doomed to fail. If you're looking for a genuine vote loser, you've got it in mandatory ISP filtering. This Department should stop with the spin by fudging the facts and start listening to the experts and the vocal majority who DO NOT want such a filter to be implemented. Democracy is something we can't afford to lose.
