Translation: No, I haven't heard this announced as a policy for implementation.

Have you heard an announcement by Conroy or do you know of it will be introduced as a policy into the lower and upper houses?

You just don't know these things - therefore all your doing is making assumptions.
Yes, it was announced in this media release by senator conroy

"The Government will introduce legislative amendments to the Broadcasting Services Act to require all ISPs to block RC-rated material hosted on overseas servers."

...

"The Government expects to introduce legislation during the Autumn 2010 parliamentary sittings. There will be a twelve months process of implementation after the passage of the legislation."

Measures to improve safety of the internet for families | Senator Stephen Conroy | Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy

"A spokeswoman for Communications Minister Stephen Conroy said yesterday the legislation would not be introduced next month's or the June sittings of parliament.

With parliament not sitting again until the last week of August, the laws are unlikely to be passed before the election."

The fact that virtually nobody on this forum can father shit, fucked up viewpoints similar to yours without being a troll is highly concerning and a testament to your moronic nature. That is not motivational, but rather worrying. I'm not sure what will happen to this country when fuckwits like you get to vote.

Learn to make concessions when your argument has been disproven 100 times over, and you might shed a bit of that neg rep.

Ruddkip has already said that he won't

WON'T!

do this till after the election

you fagtard
Which is odd because he KNOWS the Greens will have balance of power. So unless he plans to negotiate at OPT-IN filter with the Greens he either expects support from the Coalition (that's a fucking shaky thing to rely on) or wants to postpone it indefinitely (i.e. kill it).

Wikileaks passport founder confiscated

Julian Assange, the Australian founder of the whistleblower website Wikileaks, says he had his passport taken away from him at Melbourne Airport and was later told by customs officials that it was about to be cancelled.
Last year Wikileaks published a confidential Australian blacklist of websites to be banned under the government's proposed internet filter.
The Age has been told that Assange's passport is classified ''normal'' on the immigration database, meaning the Wikileaks director can travel freely on it.
Assange told The Age his passport was taken from him by customs officials at Melbourne Airport when he entered the country last week after he was told ''it was looking worn''.
When the passport was returned to him after about 15 minutes, he says he was told by authorities that it was going to be or was cancelled.
Passports are routinely taken from travellers for short periods by immigration officials if they are damaged.
Wikileaks has risen to prominence for posting leaked footage of US forces laughing at the dead bodies of 12 people they had just killed in Iraq in 2007.
It was in the Australian spotlight last year after publishing a confidential blacklist of websites that forms the basis of the government's proposed internet filter.
The list as published by Wikileaks then blocked links to YouTube clips, sites on euthanasia, fringe religions, and traditional pornography - as well as the websites of a tour operator and a dentist.
The government says the intention is to block extreme sites depicting such things as child pornography, bestiality and rape.
The Australian Communications and Media Authority has also asked the Australian Federal Police to investigate the leaking and publishing of the Australian internet blacklist.
But a spokeswoman for the AFP said yesterday the federal police had dropped the case earlier this year because it was ''not in our jurisdiction''.
Assange said half an hour after his passport was returned to him, he was approached by an Australian Federal Police officer who searched one of his bags and asked him about his criminal record relating to computer hacking offences in 1991.
Assange's allegations about his passport were first made on SBS current affairs program Dateline, which aired a story on the Wikileaks founder.


Australian Wikileak founder's passport confiscated

This government looks more and more like a bunch of fascists.

They are determined to stamp out free speech.

It's time the people take this jackboot off our asses.

It is his Government, thus it is his policy.

You are 16, please get a clue very soon or we are doomed.

If you had the slightest clue about who Paul Keating actually was, you'd understand how unsurprising what he's saying is. As usual, its the same type of uniformed, ridiculously stupid repetitive shit from you.

If Rudd was convicted of child molestation I'm sure you'd still suck up his ass, because your an moronic shit stain attempting to understand something which is ultimately beyond you.

For the record, I never backed Abbott as the perfect prime minster, but when it comes down to it, no reasonable human being can support mandatory internet filtering. It is simply flawed to the extent where it seems like an pro-longed April fools joke.

The potiential for government abuse is certainly there. Naive fucks like you who blindly attest to the misguided belief that the government solely pushes legislation foreward it deems to be in our best interest, are the only ones supporting interent filtering.
i didnt even comment on the link you fool.
you disagree with me - thats fine - but dont give me these pathetic gross exaggerations, assumptions, generalisations and stereotypes.

i will now supply you with this below (note that i am not commenting because i think you all can make judgements for yourselves)

So basically the world of lauchlan over rides that of countless organisations such as Google, iiNet and Yahoo, groups like EFA and even the Obama administration.

Excellent.

For some reason I doubt you've watched that link.
your hopeless. not only do you misunderstand my position - you very much assume my view on other separate matters. dont even bother trying to respond, your misinterpretation of everything i post has reached a new low.

Explain your fucking position then, here we all are thinking you are fucking all for this Internet Filter, even after numerous people have explained why it will fail on many different fucking areas.


You are like the Male version on Melinda Tankard Reist, can not take criticism and a fucking poor debater.

listen here you vile creton,
the good people of Australia have made themselves clear, they want an internet filter, they want the kids of Australia to be able to go online without being confronted by graphic animal pack rape videos.

Why are you so against it? What have you got to hide? What exactly have you go to lose here?
Come clean Snow Fox, you were already caught trying to import elicit video games in some sick attempt to 'train' our children in online rape simulations.

Dirty creeps like yourself have no right to dictate public policy, yes you spend the most time online, but no, people like you don't have the freedom to do what you like.
Just like people don't have the right to peddle child porn in the physical world, people don't have to right to peddle child porn in the virtual world. I'm not a fan of Rudd and Conroy but I applaud them here for taking a stand against you aggressive perverts, your online activities have been hitherto unacceptable, and it's time the grown up's started to keep watch.

So you and you cronies can scream and shout all you like about your unalienable 'right' to watch babies being raped, but the Australian are fed up, this policy will be implemented to make our online space safer and cleaner, and if you don't like it then go to live in another country (although I admit that's pretty unlike, since it's clear from your earlier braggings that you are a welfare bludger)

i agree. my only concern is the mechanics of the policy ie. whether it will block the right sites - which im pretty certain it will. i guess people like Snowfox are using scare-tactics to suggest otherwise. what im trying to say is i agree with your moral outburst on people like snowfox, and i am FOR a working, effective filter

there you go - now i have given you my position on this debate.
