Our old mate Darren Pauli from Computerworld pulled off a beautie last week with this article: Content filter pilots debunk critics.

Unless I have missed something recently, the iPrimus CEO has gone on record as supporting Internet Filtering! This goes against the position of every other ISP we have read about to date, (unless I have missed something and please do correct me if I am wrong here).

Now I could sit here and go over old ground (previous posts), but reading the article, it just comes across as if this guy has just heard about this and thought, “hey, sounds okay to me!”.

Is it just me thinking that?

Read on:
You have to ask, based upon comments like this, WTF?:

“We are a family-oriented ISP and there has been significant demand from our customers for content filtering. Users can opt-in and opt-out whenever they want, which gives freedom to the customer.

ISP filtering can work insofar as the technical [theory], provided ISPs allocate systems in the right way and staff and supervisors are capable. The trial is not a big bad issue like it is made out to be; it can’t be compared to China because we are not doing anything like that, but are providing an option to customers to choose the content they want to view.”

Did someone forget to mention to this guy the word “MANDATORY”?…….Plus all the other stuff we and others have posted.
