Why, oh why, do we yet again see IT people not being TRULY consulted about such matters. After far too many years in IT in Canberra, and now living overseas, I wonder why the policy is all about the child porn. Get a grip - technology will always get around such evil. Why not commit the same level of funding to protect national infrastructure, and let ordinary folk go about whatever floats their boat. Combating child porn has to be done on an international level - filtering on a "country" basis is not going to work - have your so-called IT gurus not told you about proxy servers? Dynamic proxy servers, even? Leave kiddy porn to the experts - the AFP - and leave the Internet alone. It works because it's freedom of speech. Let's face it - it's a pathetic excuse to yet again control what we are allowed to see on all media platforms. That's really the agenda, isn't it?
