Yet another case of technofascism. This calls for nailing 95 Articles of Common Sense to the door of Parliament, because it's not even actual, really religious in the spiritual sense of the word people who are banning these games. Conroy has also slipped up multiple times with his firewall justification, lookie here:

So less than 32-35% of what is being blacklisted is actually child porn. Not to mention Conroy doesn't have a leg to stand on when he opens his mouth.
It's not an issue of whether Aussies are puritanical, it's just that the ones in power at the moment are. We should be doing something like spreading awareness through Twitter like the Iranians are doing, but nobody has really replied to my saved search/#tag of #stopoznetcensorship.
If you have twitter, post your views on that hashtag about this and use an @reply to Kevin Rudd to enact a non-violent and sensible protest. That's all I have to say for now.
