it's on the backburner.

Hope you are right Rod.

People asked for this however - they did not vote out conroy - and
they could have done.

Enforcing filter in Conroy electorate and not using it anywhere else
sounds fair to me then...

Agree with Rod though, its not likely to pass - with the Greens
against it, however they could pull a deal for allowing carbon tax if
greens agree to it ?

Thats talking about the original voluntary scheme now that Conroy hasnt
got a hope in hell of getting his compulsory scheme true parliament.

People asked for this however - they did not vote out conroy - and they could have done.

They got within an ace of voting labor out and thats a very
decent effort given the landslide the Dud got in his election.

Nope, because the coalition doesnt support it in the lower house
either and neither do the 'independants' in the lower house either.

He's a senator, stupid. You'd have cut off the whole of Victoria and given
the senate ticket it was essentially impossible to vote him out anyway.

FARK, he's another stupid pom from Victoria.

voluntary Internet filter is on track for implementation by Optus, Telstra
and iPrimus

It's curious how this Voluntary word snuck in, but I think Conroy is up to
his usual dirty tricks

Apparently the "Voluntary" bit is that it's Voluntary for the ISP, but not
for the individual users.

I could be wrong ......

Thats what was proposed before Conroy was stupid enough to try a non voluntary one.

but I think Conroy is up to his usual dirty tricks

Not a chance, he would have to get a non voluntary one thru parliament, and that aint gunna happen.

Wrong.

You are indeed.

Yes, its already started and Labor would look too stupid if they stopped it now.

I doubt that they will be allowed to rip up the copper network, and so its unlikely that
it will ever be commercially viable while ever most already have very decent broadband
available if they want it, and those that dont wont be getting the NBN anyway.

It'll just be yet another terminally stupid Labor scheme to piss $50B against the wall.

I might even use it myself if its attractively priced compared with the other broadband
available, but believe that there are much better things to spend $50B on.

And if we are doing to piss $50B against the wall on a NBN, we should
be using what was raised from the flogging off of Telstra on that.
