   So, I don’t get it. First they have to apply, if successful they get an offset of SOME costs, not all, then they have to deal with support complaints, AND they have to sign a stupid NDA, and then, and only then, do they actually get a list of the blocked sites?!?!?!?

   [sarcasm] Sounds like the end users really WIN!!! ALL FOR THE GREAT FIREWALL OF AUSTRALIA SAY AYE!!! w00t I can’t wait!!! This’ll be the GREATEST THING THAT HAS EVER HAPPENED TO AUSTRALIA!! w000000t!! [/sarcasm]

   NDA? Great, so that will effectively silence Mark Newton. If it wasn’t for him speaking out in a personal level in the first place then the Australian public would still be completely in the dark about there being two lists as opposed to the originally announced one, and we wouldn’t know that the second list is for illegal and “otherwise objectionable” material, what ever that is.

   Seriously, IS this Australia I live in or what? I honestly can’t tell any more.
