"Putting an Internet Censor on the Barbie"

So, when Australia starts filtering the Internet, if you ask “Do you come from a land down under?” on a chat site and get no response, that’s a yes.

Actually the plans to filter the Internet in Australia are just a way to avoid having to explain Vegemite, Paul Hogan and the difference between a kangaroo and a wallaby for the millionth time.

Or the country’s latest move to prevent Mel Gibson from moving back.

Finally somebody’s drawing the line against Platypus Porn. [you don't have to click that link, it's YouTube, a cartoon, nothing visually NSFW but audibly obnoxious]

You know that Internet filtering in Australia isn’t going to last more than five minutes after a Midnight Oil song gets labeled ‘malicious content’.
