That means the policy being advanced by DBCDE right now is a 
failure to deliver what Conroy has portrayed as an ALP election
promise in 2007.

The current proposal fails outright to deliver on that new 2010
requirement as well.  Google has identified over a trillion URLs
on the 'net, millions of those would meet the RC definition.  At
last update, Conroy's proposal will "prevent" so-called "accidental"
access to 355 of them, for the princely sum of $44.5m.
