Internet Filtering



Hands up those people who don't believe the Internet is being censored by the catholic religious right wing of the Labor Party?

Family values? Don't you mean making allowances for the slack and the incompetent.

"Somebody should do somfink about it?" said mum chewing gum.

Yes, you, get yourself a filter, they are freely available, and monitor your own child's progress.

That's where it really doesn't make sense, filters have been freely available for years for any parent who has concerns about what their children are looking at. But, apparently, parents don't care so much, as the take up rate has been small.

So the god botherers are stepping in... as they have an ‘avenue in’ to impose their ideas yet again on everyone around them.

Think of the children, familiar words when the adults don't like something.

(We're just thinking of the children. No, it has nothing to do with the religious myths in which we choose to believe)
