hypothetically it will stop children from getting access to these websites should they get curious and type something "naughty" in. if thats not good enough for you then too bad.
Who the fuck, other then children, uses the word naughty to describe something disturbing. Just to play with your mindfuck ill use the word naughty so you can understand us all a lot better.
Google already blocks
Naughty Stuff. Nearly every search engine does this. Local ISP's already block
Naughty Stuff. If the government has found more of these
Naughty sites they should hand the fucking list to ISP's and the AFP so they can block and monitor these sites.
The filter Stephen Cockride is trying to implement fails at blocking these sites, and blocks legitimate
LEGAL sites such as Health Issue websites and Euthanasia sites. The information given on these sites are RC, not banned outright. RC generally means it can not be sold in Australia. Since these sites are not selling anything i can not fathom how they could be banned.
Legit Pornography sites are being blocked as well. It makes no sense, unless you tie in the fact Conroy is a Christian in charge of something that effects everyone, then it makes absolute sense:
HE IS CHRISTIAN, THEREFORE ALL PORN IS AGAINST THE WORD OF GOD. Or some tripe like that.
Google, the most used Search engine in the world, has a safe search built in. The kid would have had to turn the default safe search settings off so they can view the stuff. And dont go saying "Oh any word will bring up porn sites." Melinda Tanakard Reist, quite frankly the most retarded person to hit the internet bar you, tried saying searching Blue Orchard will bring up porn. I did it with safe search OFF and it still came up with Wikipedia links and their equivalents.
Please, grow the fuck up and see what is happening. The filter is a giant hole. It doesnt work, sites will be blocked, proxies will start appearing everywhere, the Government controlling it will have access to options to block opposition websites and the CP creators, distributors and users will still have free reign on MOTHERFUCKING P2P NETWORKS!.
