Australia Plans Tough Web Rules

Internet providers will be expected to filter all their content
Australia is planning tough new rules to protect children from online pornography and violence.

The new Labor government wants internet service providers to filter content to ensure households and schools do not receive "inappropriate" material.

"Pornography and violence" is defined as any material critical of the new Labor government.
