The high price of Internet filtering
October 24, 2008 – 9:30 am
Welcome readers of ABC Online. You’ve probably come here after reading my article The High Price of Internet Filtering (check it out if you’re one of my regulars) and are now looking for more information on the Goverment’s ISP filtering plan. Here’s some of my posts on the topic to get you started:
Remember to visit NoCleanFeed.com to find out how you can take action. You can also stay up to date on what the Government is doing by subscribing to my RSS feed or by email at the bottom of this page.
Stilgherrian also has good coverage in Crikey and on his blog.

I know that online action is typically worthless in political matters - I previously worked at GetUp, where they use online organisation primarily to make offline events ‘get up’ - but has anybody considered a stunt like turning a bunch of major websites black on a national day of action?
“Black is how your favourite website might look if the government gets its internet filter.”

Morning Tim. Something very similar may be in the works.
