окруженный водой

в Австралии же все идет прежним ходом:

The Great Australian Firewall has claimed another victim – some pages of Wikileaks have been added to the blacklist of websites which Australians are not allowed to look at.

с другой стороны, активисты, выступающие против Большого Барьерного Брандмауэра, тут же взяли этот факт на вооружение:

Editors at Wikipedia have removed a link to a blacklisted web site that sat uncontested for over 24 hours in the main body of the Australian regulator’s own Wikipedia entry. The link, which directs readers to a site containing graphic imagery of aborted foetuses, was inserted into ACMA’s Wikipedia entry by a campaigner against Internet filtering to determine whether Australia’s communications regulator had a double-standard when it came to censoring web content. The very same link motivated the regulator to serve Aussie broadband forum Whirlpool’s hosting company with a ‘link deletion notice’ and the threat of an $11,000 fine. Last night, the link became the subject of “warring” between several Wikipedia administrators in the lead up to it’s removal, with administrators saying they didn’t want to be used to prove a point.

попутно вышли и результаты — в сети оказался реестр так называемых вредносных сайтов:

The list contains some 2,395 sites about half of which do not contain child sexual abuse images. It includes online poker sites, fetish, satanic and Christian sites, Wikipedia pages, gay and straight pornography, a travel operator and even the website for a Queensland dentist.

прекрасно, мне кажется. идеальный остров накануне. остров идиотов.

Not surprisingly, a member of the conservative party (CDU) announced plans to also check if the law could be extended to include so-called ‘killer games’ like Counterstrike, only two hours after the law was passed    […]
