A survey commissioned by groups opposed to the Federal Goverment's internet filter project has found that parents in marginal electoral seats are less likely to support the proposal, the more detailed information they are given about it '” although they strongly supported the filter idea overall.
The survey was conducted in January 2010 by GA Research on behalf of the Safer Internet Group, which is made up of the Australian Library and Information Association, Google, the Internet Industry Association, the Systems Administrators Guild of Australia, Yahoo!7 and the Australian Council of State School Organisations.
The full report has not been released by GA Research. However, in a statement issued this week, the company said it surveyed 1,018 parents in 'key marginal seats' in Sydney and Brisbane.
