The above link takes you to an article on wikileaks.de regarding the censoring of the internet in Australia. You can download the list of banned sites from there and view them for yourself. I encourage you to save a copy for you own research.

While Wikileaks is used to exposing secret government censorship in developing countries, we now find Australia acting like a democratic backwater. Apparently without irony, ACMA threatens fines of upto $11,000 a day for linking to sites on its secret, unreviewable, censorship blacklist — a list the government hopes to expand into a giant national censorship machine.

I just had a thought about how people with religious good intentions really scare me. I heard the senator for censorship in Australia in question time when being told by the senate committee that this legislations was completely ridiculous, his reply was something like, ’so you support child pornography then’. The simplicity of the argument works well for channel seven news bites and maybe the majority of people only think in news bites now, as can be evidenced by our societies continuation of multiple wars against things you cant wage war against….thought war….

PLEASE READ COMMENTS BELOW!!!

The following came as a spam comment for the previous post. It didn’t take long to get spammed but I really liked this one. Quite a nice little story. I may have to use it one day as a theatre piece.

I.
The first time it happened, Adam was in the office gym. It was not his regular gym, but a small one high up on the silent upper floors. As he walks out, a piece of jagged metal in his hand grazes the arm of one of the corporate sentries, one of the unsmiling men who moves in the strange silent world of the upper floors. A deep gash in the skin that reveals, not blood and flesh, but a gleaming silver fluid, endlessly swirling, like molten metal. Adam is terrified. Then something hits him, and he rememberes nothing more until he comes around in a strange corridor with wide bell-shaped vases standing against the walls. He returns to work, and in the coming days convinces himself it was all a dream. But he still has that piece of jagged metal he picked up. And he remembers, weeks later, when a man is found dead in the strange corridor with wide vases against the wall, his body covered in welts the shape of long, curved eyes.

I’ve been back to the nusstabox blog so many times in the last months and nothing new? what are you doing with your time hey? Bloody hell anyone would think you were some kind of artists thats got some sort of artists block or somthing… hey?

welll……

have ya?…..

It’s just about time you just sat down long and hard and wrote a big time pile of outporing rant driven crap about something that is on your mind or else no one will ever come back to the nusstabox to read the crap that you have to say? You think it’s all crap too… don’t you? But let me tell you… the little voices in your head are just that… little… and the ones that really count are waiting like the little children that they are for their turn to shine and shout and grow…. Isn’t it about time you told your little critic to just sit down for a bit? He doesn’t need to go away totally other wise you may descend into that place you were a couple of years ago… not that that was really bad, actually at the time it was just what you needed but at this time I feel you need a little bit of hard reality and a bit of self realization not coupled with huge experimentation…. Do you get it?

Knuckle down brother… where here to help you!!!!

Does this mean I am going to post more to the nusstabox….

mayby…

mayby it doesn’t.

There are strong maybes and weak maybes but if we all said maybe a bit more often… maybe the would would be a happier place.

: )

love ya!
