Last week we ran a story on the “Clean Feed” - the Federal Government’s plan to force ISPs to censor the Internet for all Australians.

Well counter-activity has rapidly progressed and for those of you who haven’t heard, there are now a range of things you can do to get involved and stop the clean feed from happening.

First stop should be Electronic Frontiers Australia’s No Clean Feed site - http://nocleanfeed.com - sign the petition and keep abreast of what they’re up to.

Not long after that you should jump onto the Silicon Beach Google Group post on the topic and either join in the conversation or, at the very least, stay tuned so that when initiatives are announced you’re ready to roll!

This is not just about censorship (if that isn’t enough), it’s also about a reduction in quality of Internet service for EVERYBODY due to the overhead of filtering content as well as wasting of millions of dollars of taxpayer money on something that has little-to-no support in the wider community and is ineffective from a technological standpoint.

So sign up, tell your friends and family to do the same and let’s get his thing shut down before it’s too late.

Oh - if you know of any other relevant sites that you think might be of interest to people wanting to stop the clean feed form being implemented, feel free to put them in the comments.
