I have a mandatory filter in my router.  It filters the following RC material:
* disney
* adobe
* any link of the form *.swf

I believe - without a skerrick of evidence mind you - that at least a not insubstantial portion of Australians don't want my filtering forced on them (they would, of course, be misguided if they thought this, as I would only do it for their own good). It is possible I am wrong on this...
