Dec 2008 Newsletter - CLA launches anti-filtering campaign
Article posted on Sunday 30 November 2008CLA has launched a campaign to stop the Rudd Government imposting mandatoring internet filtering - censorship - on adult Australians' access to the internet. The campaign consists of a new website - http://www.censorfree.com.au/ - and a series of events, activities and media releases to be rolled out over the coming few months.
The government wants to stop children accessing pornography, a move CLA is entirely in agreement with. But the government has backed down on a promise to do so under an 'opt-in', voluntary system for parents, and instead plans to impose mandatory censorship, cutting adult Australians' access to information (and dramatically reducing internet speeds as a by-product).
