Telstra Fears LulzSec Attacks, Hesitates On Internet Filter

Posted by timothy on from the well-wouldn't-you dept.

After the earlier report that some of Australia's largest telcos (and ISPs) were to start censoring internet traffic based on a blacklist, rdnetto writes with the news that "Telstra is now hesitating to deploy the internet filter it had previously promised to implement, fearing reprisals from online vigilantes." The linked article specifically names LulzSec as the source of such reprisals.

    Don't encourage these people. They might be attacking some organizations that we all hate. But at the same time, they attack legitimate organizations just for the kick. You're adding fuel to a flame that doesn't care what it burns.
