[AusNOG] Why No Form Of Censorship Is A Good Thing

[Kai]

Yeah, I know that but the way Conroy's going he'll use anything as ammunition as "pro-filter" even if it has nothing do to with filtering, and more about parenting, ie, that article. Especially since an academic is already mentioned in the article as saying that is basically proves we need to be censored.

This is a parenting debate not a censorship one.  Censorship would have made no difference.   Not allowing a child to have a computer in her bedroom would have.
