It seems the ACMA is continuing its draconian Internet censorship in
Australia. Earlier this week it threatened www.whirlpool.net.au, a
popular Australian tech site, with $11k/day fines if it did not
remove a forum post containing a link to a page on their "secret"
filter list. Something that's also interesting is they went straight
to the hosting provider, not to whirlpool itself, with the threat.
Anybody know the link(s)?
No match for "BANNEDINAUSTRALIA.COM".

       I'd be interested in the list too. Then I can get myself band in
Australia!
