Or a troll. What scares me is the possibility that he actually seriously thinks that way

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A WORKING, EFFECTIVE FILTER.




Fuck.
how do you know? this debate is too abstract and hypothetical to make any valid judgements from. just wait until (IF) the legislation is released next year.

I think it would be far better to spend time, money and resources to stop cp at the source rather than trying to filter it (and a bunch of legit stuff that is RC).

Fuck Lauchlan is one of the shittest dumbcunts I've seen on BoS in a while.
if you describe people as "shittest dumbcunts", i would be surprised if others havent called you that. therefore thats a bit of a weak call.

You know what, my 2 years of Information Software and Technology, 2 years of Information Computers and Technology, 2 years of Information Technology and 2 years of Information Programming and Technology not only allows me to know what happens when something or someone is blacklisted, it also gives me the ability to know that neither you, Melinda Tankard Reist and Senator Conroy combined could even begin to imagine how unfathomably irresponsible and ludicrous this filter is.


It shouldnt be even called a filter. Calling it a filter suggests it goes through websites and takes the bad stuff out. It doesnt even do this. It blacklists the site all together. It should be called "Australia's Equivalent to the Great Chinese Firewall", because that is what it will be.

The filter will not work. It is as simple as that.
They tested this filter out in a Yr 7 class. It took less then 10 mins for one of them to breach it via a proxy site.
The money used to even fund the development of this filter could of been given to the AFP to combat Child -blam!- (CP) distribution via P2P networks, the same network which piracy and illegal -blam!- is vastly distributed and the same network which this filter does not cover.

Australian ISP's already have websites which host CP blacklisted and home users are banned from viewing them. Senator Conroy should be giving the ISP's the list of banned sites so they can add the CP distributors to the blacklist.

Australias network speeds are one of the slowest in the world, we do not need a filter slowing it down even more.

The government could save money by sending every family a Internet nanny (practically a filter) program. This program is constantly updated against all things evil and parents/caregivers have complete control on internet viewing. They also could take a page from Microsoft and show them how to set the computer so users can not search for certain things.

Senator Conroy let slip on the 7PM project that the filter is practically designed on China Great Firewall. so you dropping the debate because you found a speaker on your team was a advocate for the chinese filter is rather daft.

You are supporting Censorship, and a Chinese designed firewall.

This isnt about call, Lauchlan, this is about the debate itself.
The problem with free speech is
where does censorship end?
with Rudd's own views, the right wing anarchist parties that then pertain to an imprtant sector of our bipartisanship?
Dont confuse yourself with 3+ syallable words, we know you dont know what they mean.

i agree that the problem isnt about calls.
one problem is that majority of the time people aren't being relevent.
instead of giving a detailed proposed contradiction to whateva i say, they try to undermine me personally.
let me make one thing clear.
i am NOT for the filter mentioned this year.
what i am for is a effective filter concept, because i know that the govts filter was a fail. it may not exist, but its the concept that i agree with.
i actually respected your comment up until your last sentence. you say that its not about calls then you say that. your overreacting at someone who just as well agrees with what your saying. so please dont contradict yourself. otherwise, join the club of people who attempt so frequently to ridicule me.

I cannot believe this argument is still going, this has got to be one of the most insignificant little bullshit pieces of legislation proposed in the history of Westminster government. I hope it passes just to piss of all you little dropkicks.

I do but that's hardly the point. The filter won't work, even if it did it would 90% filter things which are illegal content and most of the remaining 10% should be. Meanwhile the government and the courts frequently suppress publications of this and that in books and newspapers without anyone sneezing and if they were genuinely trying to execute some Orwellian style suppression of independent thought they would not have been publicly yakking about it for two years before putting it the lower house. Furthermore if the government really wanted to conduct some war on freedom they would not have just appointed Virginia Bell to the High Court.

So... you do look up scat porn?

I've been watching that t.v. The lack of denial and the deflection means you do, infact, bat off to scat porn.

Gross.
Who am I to argue with the infallible television.

I'm just saying man, it's easier to have no filter and just download as much of the shit as you like rather than be all like 'i can proxy lol' like a hard cunt.

Yeah.
Yeah but having to proxy is a small price to pay to see millions of people get pissed off.
