Some interesting developments for those keeping track of the Australian Internet censorship issue - Electronic Frontiers Australia received a take down notice for linking to that stupid abortiontv.com site. EFA's Nic Suzor has provided an analysis of the situation:
Our linking to the AbortionTV page, however, was not to support this message. We used the page as an example of over-blocking of political speech by the current and proposed censorship regimes. We are extremely concerned that Australian websites are currently being required to remove links to what we believe is legitimate political speech, even where that speech is offensive. We are also extremely concerned that, if the Government’s plan for mandatory ISP filtering goes ahead, such websites will be blocked without any transparency or avenue for review.
They will be looking at ways to appealing, but from the analysis, it seems like a bit of a pain in the ass.

Speaking of censorship, Apple have rejected an iPhone app from Nine Inch Nails. Trent Reznor has a hilarious (warning: MA15+ themes and language) forum post showing what he thinks of the situation.

I assume that is sarcasm and that you know they reject them all the time for all sorts of spurious and unknown reasons
