When a parent says, "children, you decide what you think is right/good", then the parent is basically giving up their responsibilities because if the parent doesn\'t do it, then the other influences will teach their kids things.  One aspect of raising kids is for the parents to guide their children so they become good and responsible citizens.  You don\'t do this by letting kids roam freely on the internet - until the kids have context.<br><br>Just some simple searches in Google can yield nasty results.  Since a parent can\'t watch every action, some outside tools should be used.<br><br>I use <a href="http://bsafe.com" rel="nofollow">bsafe.com</a> and it helps tremendously.<br><br>What I have to laugh about is all of these people (not those who posted here) who have no trouble for schools to hand out birth control to kids without parental consent but have a big problem with some simple filtering. (Likewise, try to exercise freedom of speech in left leaning institutions and you get shot down and attacked very quickly.)<br><br>As for the government deciding what we watch, I have a problem.  I think the government can and should educate people on the necessity of using something like <a href="http://bsafe.com" rel="nofollow">bsafe.com</a>, but they shouldn\'t do the filtering.  Likewise, the schools should teach reading, writing, etc. and stay away from handing out birth control without parental consent.<br><br>One final point, as a society, we know that certain behaviors are bad.  For example, we know that sites that talk about killing others are not good for people, especially kids. We know that porn sites aren\'t good.  It\'s hurting our kids by ignoring what is bad. In other words, when we won\'t judge content because we are afraid that we might offend someone, that is wrong; raising our kids is more important.<br><br>I wrote more than I thought but some of this comes from Evan Sayet\'s talk called "How Modern Liberals Think". <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaE98w1KZ-c" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaE98w1KZ-c</a><br>Evan talks about what he calls Modern Liberals and their inability to make proper judgments because of their fear of offending people.

I was confused for years because usually liberals are soft on crime.  Then I realized that by supporting hate crimes, they can seem tough on crime and suppress speech at the same time.  The idea is to to make an existing crime a "hate crime" and elevate an underlying issue ("the thought") as being criminal.  So nowadays, just the thought of anything that has been converted to a hate crime can get you in big trouble.  So "hate crimes" are just another tool to suppress speech.<br><br>I bring this up because this is another case where certain liberals are using the government to suppress speech.<br><br>In Australia’s case, the government should not be getting into the filter business and I wouldn\'t assume the people behind this are right wingers.</div>\

I loved what the Australian Women Online weblog had to say (ping backed above):<br><br>"One popular blog, TechCrunch went so far as to suggest a conspiracy between our Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd and the Chinese.  And what did Duncan Riley from TechCrunch offer as proof of this conspiracy?  A satirical video downloaded from YouTube.  What an idiot!<br><br>If Riley and TechCrunch want to be taken seriously in this debate, they will have to lift their game.  Infantile YouTube videos and wild conspiracy theories may be sufficient to stir up support for the argument against clean feeds on TechCrunch, but it just won’t cut it elsewhere."<br><br>It just gets harder and harder to get attention, doesn\'t it? You have to bring in clown acts.</div>\

Paranoia about it somehow being intrinsically linked with freedom of speech. As others have asked, how is freedom to distribute porn connected with freedom of speech?<br><br>Has censorship of movies, TV, print etc meant we\'ve ended up with police-state like suppression of freedom of speech through those mediums?<br><br>And why do we accept censorship in those mediums but expect the internet to be open slather? And the "too hard" argument is just a cop out.<br><br>We have mechanisms in these other mediums to support parents (for example, adult magazines in plastic covers, adult shows later at night, children not admitted to adult-rated movies etc). As a parent I know that there\'s these mechanisms to help me ensure it is harder for my children to be exposed to things I don\'t think they should.<br><br>But when it comes to the internet, you want it to be 100% my responsibility. In my house that is working really well, but how do I exercise that 100% responsibility when my child is not in my house? As I say, the mechanisms are there in other mediums to help me, but you don\'t want it on the \'net.<br><br>I worked in IT for 20 years and we had to implement filtering at work to protect ADULTS from themselves. If adults can\'t even use the internet appropriately, why do we think children will? Even our own who we\'ve educated not to.  So why shouldn\'t we be trying to protect children too?<br><br>One other STUPID argument against filtering is it won\'t be foolproof or be 100% guaranteed. So what? Nothing is. Doesn\'t mean we shouldn\'t at least reduce the risk. Isn\'t it better that our children have access to only 10% of the crap than 90%?<br><br>Access to porn on the internet should be a choice as it has always been in other mediums, not a given.</div>\
