I’m supporting the online campaign to “Tear down the great firewall“.
I oppose Australian Government plans to compulsorily filter the web.
GetUp! has gathered more than 120,000 petition signatures so far in opposition to mandatory internet censorship.
There are plenty of alternatives, like distributing software to parents to use at home, or making the filter opt-in rather than mandatory.
And of course, prosecute people who download and use inappropriate material such as child pornography and bomb manufacture.
But don’t enshrine the nanny state and take away our freedom to choose.
