Wiki article on the matter
The list of sites to be filtered (mainly porn)
What are your views on this?
I don't think it should happen, I heard that internet will be like...70% slower

| It's just Rudd trying to "protect" us from the dangers of the internet.

Very old news.
Regardless, my opinion on the matter is that Stephen Conroy is a fucking retard.

i just love how this list is open to the rest of the world.
it only makes people want to go more to those sites to see what they are and why they are banned.
wonder whos the idiot who released the list.

Old liek someone said but yea this would definately kill the use of the internet... The internet is like everyones sandbox playground, its where we can do stuff we can't in the real world (like see naked people on a daily basis )

The Wikipedia link isn't working for me...At any rate, I say, if this is going to slow down the internet like Zelda_474 says, than here's my answer:
NO.
Granted, I don't use any of the ones on the list...
But if it will slow down the whole Internet, than I say no.

I'm guessing because it would have to constantly use bandwidth to search the "list" of filtered sites and to check for updates on the fly and such. I'm not very informed about it though.
