TBH i'm less concerned about being able to access our own sites than the principle of it. I'm sure there will be ways around the blocking for webmasters as more sophisticated internet users. But it's treating all the adults in Australia as though they are children or sicko's and that only the moral police truly know what is right for us that matters. They shouldn't be allowed to get away with it. 80% of us are against it and they're never going to get rid of x rated porn. There just isn't the public support for it. Hell 90% of the videos in your local porn shop are illegal but they leave them well enough alone most of the time because frankly the general public loves porn and we doesn't respect authority and don't like wowserism. But for most people, especially the less technologically savvy it really is going to restrict their freedom to access information if it goes ahead, and we shouldn't have to skirt around it as though we're criminals.. When the only reason it's going through is BULLSHIT wacko religious nuts pushing their agendas with whatever factions within the parties.. It's currently in trials.
