No Chinese officials.

The f**king Australian government dislike the kiddy porn (ofc understandable) but is also using that reason to block content of other things (e.g. brains and guts for L4D 2). It pisses me and many other people off. The Government has gotten soft and in my opinion, softening the reality of life in other areas.

In my blunt opinion, the Government is blocking unnecessary things to keep the country "Safe" and the "perfect land". The Government needs to teach people that the world isn't all "If Jim has X milk and Jemma has Y, how much more milk has Jim got than Jemma?". A more appropriate question would be "If John has X Grams of Cocaine and wants Y Grams, how much more does he need to buy at $Z/Gram?".

The blocking and restriction of content in Australia raises a slight bit of irony in my opinion. We started out as a convict colony of Irish & English criminals who were caught stealing, assaulting, blackmailing etc.. IF the government plans on changing all of this, I can assure them, there will be leaks with ever-changing ways of doing the same thing.

If the internet Censorship turns out to block content of that from Banned games then it is too far and deserves some action to be done. I certainly would NOT stand for it. It just seems too un-Australian. I grew up knowing that Australia was a wonderful country with free exchange of information & opinions. If gaming is apart of Operation No Child Porn, then I tell them scrap it.

Stopping the electronic exchange of Child Porn puts more children at risk in the real world. Without their fix from their comrades they will go out into the public, kidnap and sexually assault innocent children.



I'm done for now.
This is what the entire censorship shit is about.
