This is just embarrassing
I cant believe this guy is in charge of anything technical, he is even more embarrassing to listen to than the old Liberal communications minister Richard Alston, neither seems to have a clue. The embarrassing part is that they are Australian representatives. This isnt about pricing, its about the Conroy's pipe dream of nanny monitoring the Australian public.
If China isnt able to properly filter its own internet, what makes Conroy think Australia can. This guy would be a poster child for Hitler and Stalin, a power hungry psychopath with a shallow understanding of reality. Any attempt at filtering is a losing battle and a waste of taxpayer dollars. The only people that would benefit from a national filter system would be the technically clueless like Conroy (with a false sense of security) and the companies trying to sell Australia such a ineffective tool.
Biting the hand that feeds IT
