Prof Farber,

The Australian Government was elected a year ago on a platform built  
around "Australian Families", with the protection of children online  
as one of the emotional levers.

Internet Filtering is one of the "promises" that has to be "trialled"  
and then abandoned. As my ISP sets out in the link below, we have to  
bring the political pressure for it to be abandoned.
