Australia Ranked Fourth In Internet Freedom

Posted by timothy on from the have-you-seen-our-town's-giant-blindfold? dept.

mjwx writes "A report published by Freedom House has placed Australia in fourth in Internet Freedom, below Estonia, the United States and Germany. Freedom House highlights the lack of actual censorship in Australia pointing out that the highly unpopular proposed ISP level censorship has been shelved since the 2010 Australian election. The Freedom House report is available here."
