[LINK] Internet Censorship

[David Goldstein]

Jumping the gun here aren't you Danny? We don't even know what the version of "censorship" will be. Could it be 100 sites such as Singapore? More? Less? Something altogether different? None of us on this list have a clue what the government is proposing in this regards.

My guess is that fewer than 5% of Australian households will want a
censored Internet connection, and that after actual experience with
that maybe 1% or 2% will still want to be censored.

Remember the NetAlert success with PC-based censorware?  There's a
nice summary of that here:
