And how exactly does he plan on catching these photoshop masterminds?

[Tech Feed]

Simple! Start a special task force called the Earnest Police to assess the earnestness of every photo published daily. It should only cost $1 billion a year, but the fines assessed will more than make up for the budget expenditure! Sound good!?

everything in Australia is over priced its turning into a third world country.

That should not be illegal, it is considered freedom of press.

Fuck adobe, let's make a 100% open source equivalent - as we should do with all software.

Might I also just point out the Australian dollar is worth the same (if not more) than the American dollar...

The Australia economy is doing great compared to other nations but it is this unnecessary over pricing of everything from overseas and big companies that makes people think they are poor. It Isn't just adobe that does this to Australian customers.

I guess the Australian people subsidize Americans price as they are the more "important"customer base in the companies eyes.

I've often thought there should be a phrase defining the head/face 'photoshopped' in pornographic images. I suggest something with a double meaning.. like 'Workin'

[alpinecrackers]

haha. Exactly. 

[XrayOptical]

Don't see what the problem is.. I'm a graphic designer and I photoshop my face onto hot male bodies with large genitalia all the time....

[Hassan Selim]

I use the Reader app that comes with Windows 8 instead of Adobe Reader, so I'm safe :D

[ThinkerOnTheBus]

So, does that mean they will prosecute mainstream media for utilizing photoshop??? Not a first amendment right???!!!!!!!!!! Boot this Constitutionally ignorant politician out of office immediately!!!
