Over the couple of days I’ve noticed a few articles referring to the Australian government’s plan for mandatory Internet filtering.
Setting aside the technical limitations of the scheme, I don’t like the idea that the Australian government can decide what is “unsuitable” for an adult to access on the Internet. Good thing I set-up a VPN before I left the UK.
(Yes – I’m aware that the UK also has filtering in place. Note the difference between “unsuitable” and “illegal” content)
