The part about Morrison nagging other, more powerful, leaders about it is true at least. That definately implies that the Australian laws have been passed, but I suppose you can't rule out hypocricy. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2019/aug/25/g7-scott-morrison-to-push-for-action-against-online-terrorist-content Assuming that it has passed, this sets up a terrible precedent for government-controlled internet censorship. After all one man's "freedom fighter" is another man's terrorist, and who knows how blurry those lines might become in future conflicts which Australia may be involved in? Besides that, the post-Christchurch censorship shows how large sites can be blocked due to only a single item of content. Archive.is, a site that I've used a number of times before for decidedly non-terrory purposes, is _still_ blocked on Telstra, for example. How easy would it be for pollys to have sites that they don't like examined closely to pick out one item that can be considered covered by the new law, and thereby provide and excuse for blocking all of it? -- __ __ #_ < |\| |< _#
