Placing any kind of Internet filter into our connections will block neither the material nor the people who seek it.  It will not save a single child from such abuse; neither will it identify a single consumer of such material (other than the terminally stupid, of course).

If the supporters of the filter are "thinking of the children” as they keep saying, they seem to have found an incredibly weird way to do it.

However, it has become increasingly clear that this whole project has nothing to do with "protecting the children.”  It has far more to do with "protecting the majority” in the Senate.  Evidence of that is clear in the total and blind disregard the minister has paid to ANY technical dissent to the project.
