I think the internet is often incorrectly compared to TV and magazines
- ISP are not the content provider per se, but a communication
carrier, more like faxes and phones for example.

There is also a problem with the proposal of the blacklist itself, it
was never mentioned how the blacklist can be regulated effectively,
i.e. how it cannot be abused.

And then there is an internet security problem, there exists secure
connection on the internet which cannot be filtered; unless the ISP
perform a MITM attack, it haven't mentioned if the Australian is going
to go with an internet without security, which is hypecritical to the
proposal itself.
