A number of Australian children's civil liberties and other groups have launched a significant protest against the Federal Government's plans to censor the internet through a filtering scheme.
It's been a highly entertaining week for ZDNet.com.au and Builder AU staff as we sifted through 90 talkbacks across both sites.
Protesters came together in every major city around the country on Saturday to demonstrate against the Labor Governments' proposed internet filtering scheme. We went to the Sydney protest and spoke to some of the protesters.
We asked readers to respond with an email indicating what they thought about the government's plan to filter internet content at the ISP level the response was overwhelming.
Australia's Internet Industry Association (IIA) has published a new code of practice for digital content providers, in a response to a Big Brother incident involving indecent exposure on the reality television show in 2006.
Pretty soon, the government will be screening and filtering our email as well as making blogs like this one disappear.
Yesterday's report from the Australian Computer Society's Filtering and E-Security Task Force will be a handy weapon in Communications Minister Senator Stephen Conroy's battle over internet censorship.
ZDNet.com.au presents the man behind the Twitter account: Fake Stephen Conroy lays out his digital agenda. And kitten-fishing.
Clearly defining risk can be trickier than it sounds. Many times, we start risk assessments facing vague, half-formed threats. To overcome this, we must carefully examine the reality behind the threat using questions and reflective listening.
