80%! Shit!

Interestingly:
. only about half of people want a government department to have control of the black list.
. 93% of people don't want the list kept secret.

Hungry Beast made the usual points about how:
. 15 year olds can get around it in seconds using TOR and proxies - they're the ones most likely to be looking for porn
. it wont stop pedophiles cause child abuse material isn't on web sites
. filtering will slow the net down

Extended interview with Conroy


I used to be called with questionnaires but they don't call anymore. I wonder if the results are skewed because the Do Not Call register means that netizens are less likely to be called?
