Yes you are right it failed when it was announced, not only was it just plain dumb & anyone who could think for a nanosecond realises this... IIRC it was also part of the a Fed Govt deal with a Tasmanian wowser politician to win his vote on some other piece of useless legislation of the day. My comment is based on DCITA's (Department of Communication, Information Technology & the Arts) press release last year, plus the tenders out right now (also run by DCITA) for filter analysis and checking. www.dcita.gov.au. There is another govt body ABA (Australian Broadcasting Authority) that has a list of 'approved' filters for corporate/ private/ government use. www.aba.gov.au.
