Internet filtering: You can't opt-out (3 Viewers)

[x.christina]

I think that if people want their kids to be protected from the "dangers and horrors" of the internet, they should supervise their children themselves, instead of relying on a national filter system that won't stop the kids using the internet wrongly.
This isn't a national issue. If people have a problem, deal with with it internally.

Alright so the community forum with K.Rudd and assorted minister candies is tommorow. I've got my factsheets and so on. I'll probably be called a pedo and whatnot but I'll report any results here. Doubtful that anything will be revealed of course but I'd like to think that widespread community level opposition would be a good and beneficial thing.

People should look on the PM website for community cabinet meetings in their area.

I'd tape the discussion but I do believe you needed to fill out a special form if you were gonna be taping anything, and that I did not do.

They want to block a site that shows aborted foetuses?! What the FUCK?!

Communism much?

 

[Nebuchanezzar]

didn't get a chance to ask my question btw: question time was stacked with ALP members hidden secretly, surprisingly enough!

Actually in Soviet Russia, the average woman had around 15 abortions (or so one hears from Zionist propaganda)

So not communizm imo

What is Labour's motive in doing this? Does much of the Australian public want it?
I can't imagine that to be true... we, the freedom loving people of Australia.
Ok, now I see it.

 

[greekgun]

Labor are fuckwits for even thinking about this, and then following through with this idea. We should ship all of the labor party to china and see how they enjoy filtered internet for a while.

[greekgun]

Moderately favourable, and probably pretty uninformed.

Ah, it was fascism I was thinking of. Silly me.

corporatism?

 

[IndustrialBar]

corporatism?

Right you are, but I was wrong.
What our government is attempting seems more fascist than corporatist. Even the major ISPs oppose it.

A clear demonstration of why democracy doesn't work.

They have been almost silent about this since the economic crisis its no longer a very talked about policy as politik mentioned its dead. Why? Mabye because they are trying to fix the economy, you may not like the stimulus package but it is regardless an effort to fix the economy, so coming in and saying laor is spending time on internet filtering when they should be focusing on the economy is an illfounded claim.
