So, Australia is to become one of the elite countries of the world who censor the rights of it's people to access information on the internet. We are to join those elite countries such as China and Burma where the people are only allowed access to information their governments deem fit for the people to see. This is very much akin to a certain European government who decided that it's people should not have access to certain information contained in certain types of books and so, removed them from libraries and shops and homes and burned them in big public displays of book burnings. Internet censorship is along those exact same lines. We supposedly live in one of the "free" countries of the world. Or do we? The people of australia will not stand for this kind of restriction of their rights to access information freely. They will not stand for ISP filtering of any sort which smacks of any restriction. We are not China or Burma. We are supposed to be the "lucky" country. The "lucky" country does not hold with politicians who take it upon themselves to beat their voters with a stick and tell them what they can and cannot do on the internet. You have already done your dash with the voters of this country Mr. Conroy, you will not get a second chance. This plan is dispicable and you are obviously off with the fairies if you think this is going to win you any votes.
