Google, Yahoo and Others Fight the Aussie Filter

TheFrunj writes "In the wake of an attack on Australian Government websites comes a statement from a joint group of companies banding together to oppose Senator Conroy's infamous Internet Filter. AtomicMPC has posted the statement up on their site: 'We, the Australian Library and Information Association, Google, Inspire Foundation and Yahoo! agree that Australia needs to take effective action to ensure that internet users, and particularly children, have a safe experience online.' Backed by the weight of the Inspire Foundation, Google and Yahoo, this is a good sign for the local and international community that will hopefully spark some positive reaction."

All this thinking about children these people do just doesn't seem healthy. They're probably using all this as a cover so they can think about children like ...that. To be safe we better lock them all up as pedos for thinking about children so much.
