I dnt know if u know about the mandatory internet filtering that will b coming in.To me its a breach of our democratic right to freedom of information and it is also technically unfeasible.Its been marketed to stop child pornography which is completely not the case as there just goin 2 use the same method 2 bypass as there alredy using atm,every minority group is goin 2 b pushin the government to block things,i also have a sneaky suspicion that the copyright protection agencies have sumthin 2 do with it aswell. no more mininova
Points to take into consideration
The list will b a secret and not open 4 review
Will contain both illegal and *unwanted content*
Circumvention attempts will attempted to b logged ie using a proxy
Internet Slow down of upto 86%-Just the connection time
Unsucessful at blocking 100% of the time-Cant remember the figure but it blocks legit sites aswell
Filters Https traffic-Used for banking security etc will return invalid security certs
Labs tests are so unproportioned its not funny-Simulating 1 http get request per webpage and using only 30 1500kbps connections lol epic fail there
Real life trials start 24th december isp's that i know particpating iinet,soul/tpg
