Help build a movement

Only a massive public outcry will make the Government see sense on this issue. That's why we're taking a moment to ask you to help build an unprecedented community movement to save the internet from being slowed and censored.

Please take a moment to tell all anyone you know who uses the internet to add their signature to yours on our petition. Just use the module below.

Hi, Did you know the Government is proposing an internet censorship scheme that goes further than any other democracy in the world? I've just signed a petition to prevent the scheme that will make the internet up to 87% slower, more expensive, accidentally block up to one in 12 legitimate sites, will miss the vast majority of inappropriate content and is very easily sidestepped. The government of the day may add any ‘unwanted’ site to a secret blacklist under the scheme. Our Government should be doing all in its power to take Australia into the 21st century economy, and to protect our children. This proposed internet censorship does neither. Can you join me and take action on the net today to save the net? http://www.getup.org.au/campaign/SaveTheNet/442 Thanks!
