[QUOTE="Reluctant Theologian, post: 77657778, member: 436140"] The current AU law the AU Federal Government is using to block certain 'inappropriate' content is a bad law as its wording allows it to be used at will whenever political incumbents deem some content 'inconvenient'. Similar attempts to censor straight news coverage do not exist in other Western areas like Europe or the US. Suppressing the dissemination of simply news (in either word or video form) is bad for any democracy. X complied with the AU take-down order but still even that AU take-down order is bad and makes AU look silly in the eyes of the rest of the free world. Citizens/residents should have the right to know/see/discuss what happens in their society or elsewhere in the world. The international take-down order beyond that is ludicrous. [/QUOTE]
