Sure it will show up on the news forums, but I just wish these guys would realise that stupid pranks like this don't actually help anything. All it does is make them more determined to do what they're gonna do.

That said, I'm completely against the proposed filters that they're hoping to bring in, but there are legitimate ways to protest it, and this ain't it.

Interesting, I will be watching this to see how this turns out.
I feel for all you people down under, your government is truly crazy.While I can't condone Anon's actions, I do believe that the internet should be free, and no agency, government or international, should filter its contents.
For my reasons, read 1984. It of course didn't have the internet in it, but it shows what happens when the government controls information, they control history, they control everything.

I like how they call Anonymous a "shadowy internet group". Makes them sound mysterious and clever. And when the government threatens free speech like this, it is up to the people to do something about it, even if the "people" happens to Anonymous.
