| 691453 | 2008-07-23 11:24:00 | Hello This message is to inform you of a change in policy regarding access to some web sites via TelstraClear internet. We have decided to filter access to all known child sex abuse sites. This decision is based on the abhorrent nature of the content of these sites and our desire to create a safe online environment for our customers and their families. There are approximately 7000 known child sex abuse sites in the world. Many of them change their online address every couple of days. As a result, the list of sites is refreshed daily. TelstraClear will not be keeping records of any users who attempt to access these sites. This is not an intelligence gathering or covert measure. It is a simple filtering process to make the internet safer for all. Someone trying to access one of these listed sites will be redirected to a default page notifying them that access to that address is not allowed. This action will not impact the speed or performance of your broadband. We trust you will support our move to create a safe online environment. We appreciate and value your continued support and custom. Kind regards The team at TelstraClear |

| 691458 | 2008-07-23 13:42:00 | I receive this email today as well.I felt somewhat surprised when I read it | Ninjabear (2948) | ||
| 691459 | 2008-07-23 21:24:00 | Yep well. Blocking child porn is great, I'm right behind them, but I can see it going too far. Let's hope they use their noggins. :D | wratterus (105) | ||
| 691460 | 2008-07-24 00:46:00 | Oh yay, we now have ISP's telling us what we can do on the internet!.... | SolMiester (139) | ||
| 691461 | 2008-07-24 02:36:00 | This is a disaster, it opens the doors for blocking all sort of stuff which can be influenced by big business as has happened in other countries . It should always be up to the individual to decide what they do on the internet, if its illegal sure let them take the consequences . Lets all speed limit new cars 100Km/h, its exactly the same principle . on the flip side I can nearly accept this to help stop child porn sites . |
