    Australian Idol isn't over until the fat lady sings.

    Click here for the website of dead, gay porn icon Casey Donovan.

    Wen the ad was first published 24 hours ago, http://www.caseydonovan.com/ was directed to a page very similar to what's now at http://www.caseydonovan.com/home.html. There was no splash page, that must be new, and probably added after Telstra panicked and started hassling the owner of Casey "dead gay porn star" Donovan.

    The complaint is one thing (I don't presume to tell Australians how their laws and enforcement thereof should work) but the redirection strikes me as an entirely sensible compromise favoring usability over cybergeezer purity.
    The complaint is indeed one thing. But the redirection is not a sensible compromise, but a violation of core internet protocols. They messed up once with the wrong ad, and once again with the reaction. On the "three strikes" theory, they've got one to go before their pipe should be cut (no double meaning intended ;-)

    One problem is that legitimite visitors from BigPond cannot reach www.caseydonovan.com at all.

    BTW, the original link points to a rather mild entry page with an legal age disclaimer - whoever clicks through this either knows what he does, or needs a medium shock to reactivate comatose parts of the brain anyways.

    On the other hand, following the article link, I ended up at the Australian Idol site, but mistook it for a gay porn site anyways, until I noticed the address.

    Not sure this would work. Anyone who's worked in IT for any length of time knows that something like this is likely...


    You entered caseydonovan.com.

    Due to a printing error, it is likely you really want caseydonovan.com.au. You won't bother reading this anyway - nobody ever does, they always click "yes" anyhow. So why we've gone to the hassle of setting it up I don't know.

    Are you sure?

    YES NO
