Internet censorship in Australia currently consists of a regulatory regime under which the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) has the power to enforce content restrictions on Internet content hosted within Australia, and maintain a "black-list" of overseas websites which is then provided for use in filtering software. The restrictions focus primarily on child pornography, sexual violence, and other illegal activities, compiled as a result of a consumer complaints process. In 2009, the OpenNet Initiative found no evidence of Internet filtering in Australia, but due to legal restrictions ONI does not test for filtering of child pornography
In October 2008, a policy extending Internet censorship to a system of mandatory filtering of overseas websites which are, or potentially would be, "refused classification" (RC) in Australia was proposed. Australia is classified as "under surveillance" by Reporters Without Borders due to the proposed legislation.[3] If enacted, the legislation would require Internet service providers to block access to such content for all users.
Censorship has no place in a democracy.democracy. The coast of offending some( sometimes greatly) is worth it. Sometime people exploit democracy to sell things, but most times censorship is used to sell view, whish is far worse.
The NBN is an upgrade to Australia's existing telecommunications infrastructure. Rolls and rolls of lovely fibre-optic cable are being installed all over the country. Eventually, the NBN will replace the old copper networks that we currently use for our home phone and broadband services. The NBN's fibre-optic cables will better suit the Australian environment, as data speeds are not affected by rain and extreme heat the way existing copper lines are.
This is great news for Australians; indeed, when this NBN will be rolled out, telecommunication will be more secure and fast in terms of call making for telephone cable
I found out about my local, state and federal representative, and sent to lord Mayor Graham Quirk a message. http://www.grahamquirk.com.au/contact/, and after submitting my message , they thanked me for my comments.
This is what he did last time in parliament. Look back at how the night unfolded with the brisbanetimes.com.au live blog. We monitored results in the Brisbane City Council elections, other Queensland local government areas, and the by-election to fill Anna Bligh's former state seat of South Brisbane.
Key points:
- Brisbane Lord Mayor Graham Quirk wins another term
- 'This is a tsunami on top of a wipe-out': councillor
- LNP ahead in South Brisbane by-election primary vote
- But Labor confident of winning seat on preferences
