In the second instalment of this two part series, Federal IT Minister Senator Richard Alston talks exclusively to ZDNet Australia about Internet censorship, tackling spam and his future in the IT portfolio.
About 500 subscribers to US-based human rights watch Web site have had their paid subscription unceremoniously cancelled, after AOL placed a ban on all emails originating from the independent media source.
The Federal Government's anti-spam legislation has passed through the senate with amendments added by the Australian Labor Party and the Australian Democrats.
Spam has become such a vexing problem that, if current trends continue, e-mail could become a far less useful way to communicate.
Are you overwhelmed by unsolicited offers to make you richer, thinner, more beautiful, more successful? Then join columnist CC Holland and fight the good fight against spam--she shows you how.
Columnist Josh Mehlman suggests that anti-spammers treat spam prevention as a real job, not a crusade; do it professionally, openly, and most of all, fairly.
