nsane.forums Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Announces that initial round of testing will include Primus Telecommunications, Tech 2U, Webshield, OMNIconnect, Netforce and Highway 1.The Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy, Senator Stephen Conroy today announced the first phase of the Australian Govt's ISP Filtering Live Pilot will begin six ISPs, Primus Telecommunications, Tech 2U, Webshield, OMNIconnect, Netforce and Highway 1.We've covered the situation in Australia quite extensively here at Zeropaid. It all started as a voluntary effort to "protect children," but quickly spiraled into an all out attempt by the Australian govt to make it mandatory for ISPs to filter the Internet of all "inappropriate content" and "offensive and illegal material." It quickly deteriorated from an attempt to somehow safeguard children from things like child pornography to things like legal pornography, gambling, and even P2P traffic, making Australian citizens rightly upset.
