		<description>The problem is we have so called &quot;experts&quot; crawling out of the woodwork on this one. I have seen opinion letters from law enforcement officials pointing out the benefits of such systems while apparently being completely and blissfully unaware how hard it is going to make it to actually enforce any crimes that do happen due to the high grade encryption tools out there. This is going to force Australia towards crypto-anarchy (which, admittedly I would welcome....), not towards the law and order and degree of control they apparently crave.</description>

		<description>Seems like the standard Labor response to any criticism is branding it &quot;irresponsible&quot;. They have a very small palette of colours to paint their world with.</description>

		<description>This has big potential to get people involved in libertarianism. 

It isn&#039;t existential nor does it require a Master&#039;s degree in economics to get it. 

In short - this stinks!

Despite the Labour party connections of some in the upper echelons of the EFA, I suggest the ALS and LDP be pro active in courting an alliance.</description>

		<description>It is noticeible that Minchin&#039;s response was &lt;em&gt;“certainly not” committed to ...&lt;/em&gt; rather than &quot;reject.&quot; In my experience the Liberals have little commitment to individual liberty, and indeed little understanding of the subject.

The first person who on hearing my views on personal liberty said, &quot;But that means people can just do whatever they like,&quot; and meant it as a criticism was a National, who was only first because I met the Liberal second. The Liberal idea of economic freedom is to allow us to keep more of our earnings to do things they approve of.

If the censorship is well pitched at &#039;protecting the little children&#039; the Libs will be too gutless and too uncaring to do more that try to get a few words changed so that in voting for it they can claim a win.

Destruction of internet speeds, disruption, innocent sites being censored by error, are all serious but if it is introduced watch every pressure group from the looney left through to the rabid right start lobbying for their pet hate &#039;ism&#039; to be included. This will be enforced political correctness if we allow it.</description>

		<description>Senior Internode management ought to make sure all their customers know what the turkeys are planning too.  Timid management is a real concern sometimes.</description>

		<description>Conroy has got to be joking. The appropriate response by Newton would be to tell Conroy to shove it and hang up abruptly.</description>

		<description>Fat chance; the far right in the Liberal party started this nonsense ( Minchin being the chief rogue) and Turnbell doesn&#039;t have the support base to bring it to an end.</description>
