And... keep up to date

To get up to date with the Australian government's plan to break the internet, have a read through this blog. I'm not sure if it's making the main news in Australia, but the government has gone ahead with a trial of its censorship scheme. This is scary. You're here right now reading this, so I figure you probably like the internet. Try not to let them break it.

If you are getting sick of me plugging this crusade, let me know and I'll think of you when I post about it next.

Also, since I am in crusade mode, I receieved an email from Mr Josh:

"Hi everyone,
I'm not the type of person that usually writes group emails ranting about politics and how the world is screwed, but this time I feel particularly moved.

If you have time, please go to www.anam.com.au and sign the petition! ANAM (the Australian National Academy of Music) is the only specialist music school for classical performers, and the only music institute in Australia that has a reputation internationally. Unfortunatley, Peter Garrett, the Minister for the Arts has decided to cancel all funding for the academy and close it down at the end of the year.

This year, all 3 finalists of the Australian Young Performers Awards were from the academy. Many of the Symphony Orchestras around Australia are filled with past students of the Academy. If Australia loses an institution like this, music in Australia will severly suffer.

Please take the time to sign the petition.
thanks, josh."

I don't know much about ANAM. You could look into it. And sign the petition although, really, internet petitions don't carry a lot of weight - email is easy and slightly more effective and old-stylee paper-type letters (like bills) are the best.

Go world! Yeah! Crusade! Change!

(Hey Josh, hope that was ok to put on here. Abuse me if not.)

Read my other post too.
Bye bye.
