No Clean Feed! A Question for Stephen Conroy

Australia is still under threat of some pretty severe internet censorship even though everyone who has a clue has said it's a bad idea. The government minister responsible for the policy is appearing on a show called Q&A and they actually accept submissions for questions. So I'm submitting a video question
http://www.abc.net.au/tv/qanda/
My question for Conroy: What evidence would lead you to conclude that the filter was a bad idea and should be rejected?

If Conroy does not have criteria for declaring the filter a failure he is not fit to be in a decision making role

If you naively believe that this filter isn't part of a plan to block freedom of speech then you must PROVE IT ! You can't just say it is so because YOU said so. Evidence please.

@TelecasterLPGTop Fuck off and die you self important little bitch

Did you ever do a piece on the leaked blacklist? I remember something like 3/4 of it was completely legal material.

[AngryAussie]

@vikeyev1 Essentially, yes

fckn brilliant piece. I really see no need to worry about this because Internet censorship won't pass through. Either the greens and the coalition will turn it down, or even in the highly unlikely even it does go through... it won't go anywhere due to the reasons you've stated (other means of distributing information/sites). China has already admitted that it's met a dead end, and Conroy supposedly assumes that the ACMA can do better? what a joke!

[AngryAussie]

@foofaklai I just can't believe he won't let it go

This threatens: 1 Peoples Individual freedom, 2 Buisness, 3 Our economy.

For once people and big companies alike have a common goal.

The population with the backing of large companies should be enough to show our governement that this plan is a turd that needs to flushed.

You and I both know, this battle against the filter has gone none-where for waaaaaaaay too long now. More people are aware then ever before, but the gov isn't budging. The BS that is being crammed down our throats and how mainstream media is completely behind it, sickens me. If this goes through, I will honestly have lost faith in our country.

@AngryAussie I can, he's Stephen fucking Conroy, cunt has no brains. I remember seeing some interview where he claimed the greatest technological achievements over the last decade were, the iphone, ipod, ipad and itunes, because they showed that you can monopolise online commerce....he obviously never heard of ebay or internet porn.
