Small Boob censorship and the Australian Government
I just got my computer powered up and took a quick tour of reddit.com. What caught my eye was a “Dear Reddit” post from an Australian. He was complaining about not wanting to be an Australian anymore. I thought that interesting so I took a look. Lo and Behold, the man was complaining about censorship in his country. That is, censorship of small boobed women on the Internet. Yes, read that sentence again, it’s true.
Wow. Just when you think you have it hard with Net Neutrality and loopholes to stop bit torrents something comes along and makes ya smile.
Well, it’s true. The Australian government is going forward on massive Internet filtering on all ISP’s to block out any content that is essentially criminal in nature. Any website that has objectionable material will be banned from all places down under. Who decides what is objectionable? Some independent body (special interest??) will decide what goes on the banned list.
Kinda shocking. I agree that child porn should be banned but you ban it by going to the website, finding the owner, and throwing him in jail. What if someone took pictures and mailed them to people? Are you going to ban snail mail too? No! You arrest him and cut off his willie! And just what is child porn anyway? Does Japanese Anime qualify? Some of that stuff is really twisted. It’s not sexual but when a giant demon rapes a teenager with a tentacle, well draw your own conclusions. I recently read a story where an army solider was being court-martial because his mother sent a picture of his niece in a bathtub. The charge? Possessing child pornography. Are you kidding?!? We all want to protect kids but lets have some common sense here.
As for those censor mongers down under, whaddyagonnado. Once you put your foot into censorship of any kind you find it really easy to keep uping the stakes. Today it’s anything “criminal” tomorrow it’s anyone talking about “crime”.
Good luck to you aussies. Sounds like you have a fight on your hands.
Oh and as for the small boob thing, the reddit poster said something like the government thinks only pedophiles look at women with small boobs. I don’t get aussies anymore, must be all those Irukandji Jellyfish in their beaches.
