In his own words:
> So here’s the deal. This is an initial investigation into charging  
> me, personally, with the violation of Australia’s Racial  
> Discrimination Act. While I act in complete compliance with both the  
> civil and criminal codes of the United States of America, and am  
> assured the right of free speech according to our Constitution  
> (which, if not the greatest political document in the entire history  
> of law, is certainly on the top five) I can personally be jailed and  
> fined for the violation of this law. Check out the court precedent  
> they cite, Dow Jones & Co Inc v Gutnick, where a United States paper  
> had to pay 580k for publishing an article about a globalized company  
> headquartered in Australia and its CEO whilst completely in  
> compliance with United States civil precedence. This isn’t a far- 
> fetched legal theory, they have used it before. Welcome to the one  
> world government, folks. Is this what you wanted? Is this what you  
> had in mind? Cause this is what you’re gettin’.

> Encyclopedia Dramatica will never be censored in any way. We will  
> keep publishing this content and our Australian users will be able  
> to view it up until the point that your God-forsaken government  
> blocks it with their soon-to-be-implemented secret list of banned  
> material. ACMA’s child pornography blacklist is only one half child  
> pornography. The rest is religious and political speech. You really  
> want Soviet-style communism as your future? I know some people that  
> had to escape from the GDR. Many of your children will be in that  
> position. The house of cards is about to come down, and they’re  
> making sure your mouths are taped shut first. Don’t say I didn’t  
> warn you.

> My counsel has advised me that I can never under any circumstances  
> visit my family in Sydney again, nor otherwise make any appearances  
> on Australian soil. Here’s to the hidden cost of freedom.
