What gets me is the very people who lobbied government for it, and used hundreds of millions of $$$ of taxpayers money in the process, dropped it and then started it all over again. I would beat the hell out of them for being so conceited.
Before the 2007 software was made free in this way, these "concerned people" refused to pay a nominal $40 or so to protect their children. This was before government was asked to pay for it for them. So their child's safety was less important than $40 or so. And now that most of them have dropped even the free software, they are wasting taxpayers money (through the religious sympathies and socialism of K.Rudd) AGAIN on something they are too lazy to do anything abou themselves and most Australians will be paying for it, as will industry and business and countless other groups.
This is so antithetical to free society that I wonder if many Australians have slowly but surely slid toward socialism, or have become so pernicious of mind that their lives revolve around fear and have become fascist and reactionary.
