Maybe this could have been the motive for the filter when it was planned to use the ACMA blacklist, which is designed for children.
Now that it only filters RC, the opposition could ask the same question. Why did you give a laptop to Little Mikey with a fibreoptic connection to boobies? Why does your filter not protect Mikey from boobies?
What's stopping carriers from deliberately slowing transmission rates for random customers during random intervals? Just enough such that Google's data is inaccurate.
474.17 Using a carriage service to menace, harass or cause offence
(1) A person is guilty of an offence if:
(a) the person uses a carriage service; and
(b) the person does so in a way (whether by the method of use or the content of a communication, or both) that reasonable persons would regard as being, in all the circumstances, menacing, harassing or offensive.
Penalty: Imprisonment for 3 years.
Australians aren't nearly as thick-skinned/tough as people think they are.
My congratulations to the Court for their embrace of technology.
I propose that we use social networking to serve legal papers to everybody! Not using twitter? Not a problem! Enough RTs will mean somebody you know can hand you the tinyurl address to the PDF!
Exetel also conducted a trial of its own in regard to ISP level web filtering technologies.
It made participation in this trial mandatory for all of its subscribers, disallowing them the freedom to opt-out.
There's some food for thought.
I believe much more people than 30-40% were against net censorship, but look what happened...
The stubborn Senator still hasn't drafted any bill and Parliament haven't voted?
Seriously, what happened? As far as I'm aware, nothing aside from the termination of the government-funded home software filter scheme has happened.
This is good, it means we have the ability to prevent anything more from happening. That is, unless you've raised the white flag before the battle began.
Optus (cable/DSL)
Telstra (cable/DSL)
TPG (DSL)
Internode (DSL)
iiNet (DSL)
iPrimus (DSL)
Swiftel/People Telecom (DSL)
Eftel (DSL)
Dodo (DSL)
Unwired (3G)
These are just the major ones I can think of that provide broadband.
Hmm....
So now I won't be criminally prosecuted or even sued for infringing copyright, I'll just be disconnected from my ISP? What's stopping me from signing up with a new one? Hell, maybe I'll sign up with a different provider just for committing copyright infringement.
And there's no risk at all.
Good one Conroy, that makes as much sense as trying to filter the internet.
What, then, if you refuse to be fingerprinted?
Do they prevent you from leaving the country?
Would this not be illegal detention?
Must refusal to provide fingerprints be criminalized for this to work?
I like it. Let's, however, have them thank Kevin Rudd's Labor government. They're all responsible. We don't want to make it too easy for them to make Conroy the scapegoat.
"Average" can be used to refer to either the mean or the median. More often than not, however, it us used to mean "the mean".
If you want to be more specific, you can use "median" or "mean" rather than "average". Seems the GP decided not to.
Figures that they don't put much effort into securing their data. The reason these people are phishers is because they're too lazy to obtain and hold a real job. They'd rather just get a bunch of credit card numbers and spend other people's money than have to work for their own. There comes a point where it's not worthwhile to do that when you have to work as hard for your money as everybody else.
(I know, encryption isn't particularly hard work - but it's such a drag to bother with. Let's just rack up some credit card charges at the nude bar, that's much more enticing)
Although if it is widely known that software can click links for you; then using AVG should help to shield you and others from such already far-fetched charges based on the so-called evidence of your request for child pornography.

Here here.
Where!?
Attorney-General Michael Atkinson has just vowed to repeal this law.

When will Google provide S/MIME support natively?
Is cyber-bullying even illegal?
You bet. See Section 474.17 of Schedule 1 of the Criminal Code Act 1995. From the page:

It's a great way to stay in shape.

That'd be +1 Informative.
Hire ninjas? No. They paid some of their bad-ass artists from the ghetto a reasonable portion of their revenue.
I like it. Let's, however, have them thank Kevin Rudd's Labor government. They're all responsible. We don't want to make it too easy for them to make Conroy the scapegoat.
I'd be worried if they were attempting this and they didn't take the recycling far enough.

Although the law of physics does seem to matter when forensic evidence is brought before the court.
