Like many others here I'm very keen to see a FTTN rolled out ASAP - built and owned by anyone but Telstra. The anit-competivie and antisocial nature of Telstra is a result of government intervention in the market, and demonstrates what happens when governments put ideology before democracy. Which is exactly the problem with the proposed internet filter -it's an insult to our intelligence as individuals and an assault on the freedoms which are essential to maintaining a vibrant liberal democracy. What justification does the government have for imposing a filter where the public are unable to find out what content is blocked? Other than to perserve their own power...
