More news has come to light on the Great Australian Wall trails which are due to begin. The trials are going to be huge apparently, featuring hundreds and hundreds of non-humans. Yes, no people.
What did you expect? ISPs to deal with complaining customers and have Senator Conroy on stage with egg on his face? Sorry, not a chance.
It has now come to hand that the live trials will be on a “closed network and will not involve actual customers.” The filter list will also only contain around 10,000 sites to be blocked due to concerns of performance issues. Great.
So they can’t get people onto a trail, they think that the small test number of 10,000 sites might be the limit. No wonder Telstra have pulled out.
And you know that when Telstra goes running, it’s a sinking ship.
