Senator Conroy.... again.

I think the poor bloke is starting to get a bit overwhelmed by this and is getting confused.
Web blacklist won't stop child porn, admits Communications Minister Stephen Conroy.
So what the fuck is it for? Why are you proposing to slow everyone's connections, for which they'll almost certainly pay more, and it won't even achieve the vary dubious aim that gets it support from Australia's Helen Lovejoys? On top of that Conroy also had this to say about the ACMA blacklist:
"Publishing the list would defeat the purpose of having the list," Conroy said. "It's a genuine condundrum."
I get the impression they're doing this because they think it can be done (which it probably can't) and haven't given it much thought apart from that.
