Net Filter
Australians see 26 January as a day to celebrate the diversity and tolerance of Australian society.
So why did hundreds of our favourite websites fade to black this Australia Day?
It’s apparently the Great Australian Internet Blackout.

As we expected, there has been considerable online discussion about our announcement to introduce ISP-level filtering.
For those who missed it, the Government announced legislation that will require Australian Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to block web pages that under the National Classification System are rated RC (Refused Classification). RC-rated material includes child sex abuse content, bestiality, sexual violence including rape and the detailed instruction of crime or drug use.
The Government has always maintained there is no silver-bullet solution to cyber-safety and this new measure is one part of a comprehensive suite to address the range of challenges online. For example, we have funded 91 Australian Federal Police officers to the Child Protection Operations Team, as well as extensive education programs for parents, teachers and children.

In August this year I wrote on this site about the lunacy of the Rudd Government’s proposed mandatory ISP internet filtering.
At that stage it was a trial but on Tuesday this week Minister Conroy announced his intention to proceed with legislation to enact this mad idea.
This is a policy that is based on a fraud so much so the Minister could barely explain it with a straight face yesterday.
