color:#1F497D'>People don’t want to be told what they can watch/see –
it is the interests groups that push these agendas. The big push on the
filtering has been from the Family First Party – some fringe Christian fundamentalist
crazies who think they speak for all Christians – which as I am one, they
don’t – which has been voiced by many other Christians I have
discussed this with. Senator Steve Fielding is the fundamentalist pushing the
Family First agenda. Problem is, the government has needed FF to get some
other things through and this is one of the paybacks for FF.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

color:#1F497D'>If it did go to a vote – we’d be able to get our
position out and most families would say no to a national censorship model –
but the problem is that the 1% fundamentalists have 99% of the influence as
when it comes down to it... most people don’t care enough to stand up and
say ‘what? We don’t need this garbage and are quite capable to
choosing what we or our kids see on the internet’.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>I still am astounded that the free filtering apps weren’t considered
good enough. If you want to filter – great.. either use software or
go to a family friendly ISP or buy a family friendly service from a major ISP.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

businesses – shouldn’t have their business interrupted by worrying
about what is essentially a consumer/end user problem.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
