		<description><![CDATA[Stephen Conroy, as usual on a Friday, made some major filter announcements today, using the excuse of a review of the &#8220;RC&#8221; classification category to put the filter on the back burner for 12 months. He also announced that three large ISPs &#8211; Bigpond, Optus and Primus &#8211; would begin a voluntary filtering scheme. Although [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Four Corners tonight tackled internet censorship in an episode entitled &#8220;Access Denied&#8221;. For a debate ruled, like most debates, by sound bites &#8211; &#8220;child pornography&#8221;, &#8220;censored like North Korea&#8221; &#8211; I was excited to see the issue get a detailed examination over 40-odd minutes of quality investigative journalism. I thought they did a good job. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have an opinion piece in today&#8217;s Age, expanding on the theme of offensive internet content: do we need Rudd to step in and save us? I&#8217;m seeing more and more panic, fanned by the media, and a sense of proportion is quickly being lost. This also continues on my new favourite theme, &#8220;Why should [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Conroy faced the public tonight on Channel 10&#8242;s The 7PM Project. I gave my input and let fly a few sound bites for the lead-in piece, but the interesting bit is the discussion that follows. The producers and hosts of the show were well-informed, and asked the tough questions. They demonstrated that filtering won&#8217;t help [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s a depressing cycle repeating itself in the Australian news. Something nasty happens. The media report the outcry about how nasty it is. Then comes the depressing bit; the politicians, wanting to be seen to respond to the confected crisis, propose some sort of ill-thought-out, knee-jerk regulation to mitigate it. A good example is Senator [...]]]></description>

Apple are uncompromising in championing the user experience in their products, and it&#8217;s little wonder they have such a loyal following.

The tool is this: to pass a law banning it. Therefore, although it&#8217;s always discouraging, a story like this one, is far from unusual or surprising. &#8221;Laws to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently the trends in Internet freedom have been all bad. China&#8217;s censorship regime escalated dramatically over the last 12 months, with a more aggressive Golden Shield, tumultuous events in Iran and of course Australia&#8217;s own filtering plan. It is therefore extremely heartening to see the tough new stand on Internet freedom taken by the USA. [...]]]></description>

With the filtering moving from policy to law, though, we can hope that scrutiny will increase. Here are my suggestions (over at EFA) for some [...]]]></description>
