iiNet Pulls Out of Australian Censorship Trial

Posted by timothy on from the doesn't-sound-manly dept.

taucross writes "ISP iiNet today confirmed its exit from the Australian government's Internet filtering trials. iiNet had originally taken part in the plan in order to prove the filter was flawed. Citing a number of concerns, their withdrawal leaves only five Australian ISPs continuing to test the filter."
