Will Fight U All The Way
I cannot beleive that the current Federal Government would even consider the filtering of the internet. For you to even think that you could do so effectively further reinforces my long held belief that you have NO CLUE WHAT-SO-EVER when it concerns the digital age. All you need to be concerned with is 'real' Hi-speed internet access at an affordable price for ALL Australians - not this disgustingly overpriced 'commodity' with which most of us are stuck. Sure, you can Hi-speed - if you have a spare $100 or so every month (I'm sure you do Senator Conroy - I DO NOT!). However, back to the more concerning issue. Either you simply don't care or grossly underestimate OUR ability to sink your plans and your position. Or are you backed to the hilt by Christian lobby groups? We all know you are but you of all people should have the intelligence to keep politics and utterly irrational blind faith separate (I would hope). Short point is this - DON'T DO IT. You will face a literal mountain of opposition should you go forward with this. The real experts (not those working for you who only tell you what you want to hear) have spelled it out plain and clear - IT WON'T WORK. Footnote - just suppose that this archaic plan were to be put in to practice and sites deemed to contain inappropriate and offensive matter were blocked - you'd never be able to load a single government site. Think about it. Practically everything the government says and does is offensive in some way or another.
