That place sucks.... Title: Re: Delete your porn before travelling to Australia Post by: NowhereMan on May 20, 2010, 03:10:42 PM I believe that was a spoof story that got picked up by everyone as a real thing.
Title: Re: Delete your porn before travelling to Australia Post by: Xuri on May 20, 2010, 06:14:02 PM Lol, awesome comments in the article.
Quote Patten said if the question was designed to stop child pornography being smuggled into the country then the question should have been asked about "child pornography", without encompassing regular porn. That's brilliant. They'll surely catch everyone who tries to smuggle illegal pornography into the country, by making them verify on a form that they are indeed carrying. :oh_i_see:Hetty Johnson, chief executive of child protection group Bravehearts, agreed with Patten that the question was too broad. She said it should only apply to illegal pornography. "If it said child porn I'd be 100 per cent behind it - if you're carrying child pornography then you deserve everything you get," she said in a phone interview.

They'll be out of power later this year anyway. I wonder if Conroy will try to get his Great Firewall of Canberra in before they get kicked out of office?

Sounds like a bad law that doesn't have any standing. Title: Re: Delete your porn before travelling to Australia Post by: Azazel on June 07, 2010, 01:15:32 AM Oh, I didn't say they'd be better. We're right fucked at the moment. From both ends.
