1) That, I do believe is a crock of shit!
2) If he does anything like that, he will be dead!!!
--and--
3) Anyone who believes in those ideas are fucked up, stupid, and
this I
can promise, will NOT make it in this world, dead or alive!!!!!
4) Like I said, I think this a crock of shit, and possibly spam.

Hi,
Usually I'm suspicious of this stuff but I happen to know that Get
Up is legit and thought the Aussie members of this list might like
to know about this.

Dear Helen,
Imagine a government proposing an internet censorship system that
went further than any other democracy - one that made the internet
up to 87% slower, more expensive, accidentally blocked up to one
in 12 legitimate sites, and missed the vast majority of
inappropriate content.
This is not China, Saudi Arabia or Iran - this is the vision of
Senator Stephen Conroy for Australia. *Testing has already begun.*
The community must now move to stop this plan. *Click here to save
the net:*
*www.getup.org.au/campaign/SaveTheNet*
<http://www.getup.org.au/campaign/SaveTheNet?dc=564,324731,1>
The system that Senator Conroy wants is *a mandatory filter of all
internet traffic*, with the government of the day able to add any
unwanted site to a secret blacklist. Already, the wrangling has
begun for the inclusion of material relating to anorexia,
euthanasia and gambling. It isn't difficult to see *the scheme is
open to abuse*.
Even when it comes to preventing child p-rnography, the filter
will not prevent peer-to-peer sharing and is very simple to
sidestep. *The protection of our children is vitally important* -
that's why we can't afford to waste funds on this deeply flawed
system. We should be concentrating on solutions that are more
effective and won't undermine our digital economy or our
democratic freedoms.
This must rank as one of the most ill-thought decisions of the
Rudd Government's first year in power. We need to act now to *tell
big brother the mandatory internet filter is incompatible with the
principles of a modern democracy and modern economy*:
*www.getup.org.au/campaign/SaveTheNet*
<http://www.getup.org.au/campaign/SaveTheNet?dc=564,324731,1>
Our government should be doing all in its power to take Australia
into the 21st century economy, and to protect our children. *This
proposed internet censorship does neither.* Take action to save
the net today.
Thanks for being a part of the solution,
The GetUp team
PS - The proposed scheme will pass all internet traffic through a
government filter - it's like asking Australia Post to filter
every letter sent in Australia. *Click here to save the net.*
