Furthermore, AWS micro instances now only cost 2 cents an hour reducing the cost of a proxymate modelled service by a factor of 75% I read that article too and it lays out my beliefs very precisely about Conroy’s inability to push this particular legislative agenda.

Conroy just did a whole interview on Lateline without the word "filter" being used. We are all winners in this. Time to re-invent the business model. Victory is ours.

So far I have only read and heard misinformed opinions - Conroy's breakfast TV stunt clearly demonstrated his lack of knowledge on the subject. I read <a href="http://www.smh.com.au/technology/technology-news/google-may-face-prosecution-over-wifi-data-20100610-xy80.html?autostart=1" rel="nofollow">somewhere today that Google had sucked up 600Gb of data</a> from unsecured WiFi in Britain, highlighting their targetting of open networks. Woot. Someone will need to fork out about $100 for a new hard drive. Ask CSIRO, <a href="http://www.smh.com.au/technology/security/charges-possible-in-google-wifi-bungle-20100610-y0mt.html?autostart=1" rel="nofollow">the WiFi 802.11 model is based on packet loss</a>. To actually make sense of even unencrypted data transfer is quite futile, but Conroy would have us believe that Google is stealing our banking passwords. Can someone find me some information on this that avoids hysteria? Maybe it will show up in Wired next month. http://www.smh.com.au/technology/security/charges-possible-in-google-wifi-bungle-20100610-y0mt.html?autostart=1

He's been perpetrating exactly the same tactics. According to a report from The Sydney Morning Herald published May 30, 2010, Conroy is quoted as saying, in relation to his Internet filter policy that "this policy has been approved by 85 per cent of Australian internet service providers, who have said they would welcome the filter, including Telstra, Optus, iPrimus and iinet." (http://www.smh.com.au/technology/technology-news/filter-goes-ahead-regardless-20100529-wmg7.html) In a statement released May 31, 2010, iiNet clearly states: "We have been involved in the Government's consultation process in an effort to at least have some transparency measures introduced. However, any claim that our participation in that consultation process is support for the Government's policy is an outright lie."
