Default [TheAge]Conroy urged to 'end net censorship farce'
Quote:
The Federal Government's internet censorship trials have been repeatedly delayed over the past nine months, leading to claims from the Opposition that the Government is deliberately withholding the results to avoid embarrassment.
The Opposition's communications spokesman, Nick Minchin, today called on the Communications Minister, Stephen Conroy, to "end this farce and produce his long overdue trial results for independent assessment".

i think instead of waste of time on censorship where ppl will try to override it, might as well try to provide faster internet speed with unlimited quota at a more reasonable price...

cheap ISP = low network stability, but expensive ISP = capped halfway through the month

All there going to find is that 80% of the computing population uses the internet mostly for porn. Theres no terrorists emailing each other like 'Hey lets bomb this place'

No, instead, they'll disguise it as porno transactions.

Poor porn guys... they can't send e-mails without getting flagged anymore.

Porn guy 1: Hey, lets shoot at (insert random place here).
Porn guy 2: Okay, I'll bring the camera, you bring the girl.

What the gov't sees

Terrorist 1: Hey, lets blow up (same random place as above).
Terrorist 2: Okay, I'll bring the bombs, you bring the posse.
