This is the guy who, quote "made it illegal for any Australian to forward an email to someone else because of copyright laws. Any violation would result in a Au$60,000 fine or five years in jail. Not content with this madness, he then proposed fines of up to Au$10,000 against any individual that posted material on the Internet that the police deemed unsuitable to be seen by minors." Gee, I just forwarded an email to someone the other day "Dick". Do I owe you 60 grand now?
Honestly, if this guy is proposing anti spam laws, it's probably because he just thinks it's a good thing to do and will appease the Liberal voters.
Sing with me "Australia, Australia uber alles."
