Senator Conroy, I cannot believe that as Minister you are badly advised on both the NBN and the Net Filter ideas. Please do not waste my money on fixing things that the govt seems not to understand, and that are not broken in the first place. Why is the govt persisting with the flawed NBN process without first defining the requirement and the national benefit in dollar terms? Why will the govt not commit to the structural separation of Telstra thus freeing the vast majority of ISP's from Telstras wholesale price gouging and general obstruction. Why is the govt persisting with the nanny state net censor idea even after the earlier trials did not work effectively and slowed traffic? Does the govt see any irony in, on the one hand pursuing a NBN offering to throw $4.7B of public money into the pot whilst, on the other hand, proposing a scheme that will slow traffic and throughput on the Australian internet to less than currently enjoyed? Will anybody thay matters in the govt actually read any of these posts or is this blog simply an attempt to appear contemporary?
