As for fibre broadband network legislation is required to enable it, and unless language stipulating censorship is included then it can't happen and that legislation is amended. Government departments can not act outside of legislation unless that legislation incorporates that out of bounds operation, as for freedom of speech in Australia that is more complex http://www.aph.gov.au/LIBRARY/pubs/rn/2001-02/02rn42.htm.

The biggest threat high bandwidth internet has politically, is an end to campaign contributions to pay for commercial broadcasting purposes. Every politician and every political party will be able to upload their message, speeches, supporting performance (on permanent record) to government hosted web sites (local, state and federal) which every citizen can freely access. No more for profit political commercials now that cripples the influence of the rich via mass media and promotes independent politicians as well as enabling smaller political parties to gain access to the electorate upon an equal basis. Additional every single sitting of any legislative body can be recorded, uploaded and accessed by anybody at any time.

Plus think of fun stuff it will enable, web hosted multi site parties, were web cams and big screen TV's can link together multiple locations around the world, for that family reunion Christmas (many sleepless day/night opportunities in there) etc.

... when we have public broadcasters, such as the BBC, ABC and so.

I'm a bit of a midnight oil fan and have been since I was at Uni. so Imagine my suprise when JJJ re-release a concert televised back in '85 - Oils on the Water. The concert was recorded in 1" broadcast video, 4:3 & digital stereo tapes for the Goat Island Sydney Harbour concert. On the same release is a Super 16 mm film and analog multitrack recordings of the Capitol Theatre concerts back in '82.

I guess some of the key lessons to learn can be read in the detailed discussion of how they re-mastered the images & sound to produce a DVD and CD of the original concerts. Some of the key takeways are:

• keep track of items together so they dont get lost
• check your media as it decays - especially transitional new media that has yet to reach stability
• you may only have one chance to re-record, transcribe the originals so get good technical advise
• have a continuity plan for resurecting the data as it was originally intended

The reason I've bothered to highlight this restoration is so you can see what happens with information stored on old media over period 20 years. In both cases, Goat Island & The Capital, the original data had been collected but only the prior data had been kept in a professional archival environment.

Is your data as future proof ?

Personally, I'd use Australian Broadcasting Company, though their site seems FUBAR'ed at present, or RTE (Irish state TV)
A while ago, I found a website, listing all the major news websites, by country, unfortunatly, no amount of googling refound it for me.
