Today lecture was difficult to me as I said i am an international students and I stuggle with politics and the australian federal system. However we talked about democracy which is a term that i know and we also introduce the term citizen-hacker which is surprising as they were not considered as computers criminals in the past. Furthermore we talked about anonymity on the internet which in fact does not exixts. This has led us to the censorship side of the internet with the black list issues. One thing that we can think of is how could we make this process of black list more transparent? It is trues that filtering the internet is important to protect our children from bad website.But if censorship of content is introduced in any website that the government think innapropriate are they not limiting aour rights to view ontent that we could view through anoher media. It is not only content that are censor but also our rights. What if any content from an opposing political party was deemed innapropriate to view? what if certain religious websites were deemed innapropriate? Censoring people rights in regards to innapropriate website is not the solution; Supervising your child when he use internet is a good beginning.
