you aussies are screwed. it seems you have a police state. it's even illegal to post on suicide boards.

a revolution might be necessary.
The internet filter thing is disturbing imo.   If the US had a firewall that blocked certain content, I would be even more paranoid.   I think it is foolish to fully trust any government.

Yeah, but an internet filter in the US would go nowhere pretty fast.

The one here has been but in the too hard basket until after the election (in other words they think it will lose votes). But who knows, now that we have a new leader there might be a cabinet reshuffle and refocus and it might be dropped.

I always thought the internet filter thing was just empty talk.

Why does everyone believe it was going to happen?

So you think it will never happen?  I hope you're right.

I think it may be too difficult for them to enforce.

I'm gettin' my 7 proxies.  :P

But yes, it'll be almost impossible to enforce. It would hamper police investigations even more because, it'll drive criminals to more encrypted underground network protocols to bypass it, if some of them were not already.
Existence actually has two broad meanings despite its apparent meaningless. The constant reconciliation of all its parts, and the conservation of any closed system as a whole.

Morality can be extrapolated from these meanings to make these two commandments of godless morality: 1). Be in harmony with one another and 2). Care for the environment.

There are classes for old people teaching them how to circumvent the filter should it ever occur.

I think Gillard will do well at the polls...but how well depends on how much Ruddamage she repairs between now and whenever... I like Gillard, she seems to be a tenacious bitch and we kinda need that as PM, not Rudd's waveringness...

Having said that you have to give credit where due, Rudd did a good job to get Labor elected. And everything he and his government has done. That counts for something imo.

Though...I do have a feeling that it may have all been show and games to sneak Gillard in, maybe Labor didn't think the public would vote a female in?

In anycase she's making the rules now, and as she said to Tony Abbott, 'it's game on!'

Speaking of Abbott, every voting Aussie needs to read this:
http://www.cannold.com/events/2010-06-23-leslie-to-launch-nus-abbotts-heaven-your-hell-campaign/

I did not know any of that until I read it. I'm now terrified of the idea of Abbott in power.

Glad Gillard is atheist (apparently a former Baptist, but now atheist... didn't swear on Bible when taking office (as is per choice))
