    The father of the Australian Firewall, Mr. Conroy corroborates with ISP's in Australia to filter the internet. However, with such censorship brings about issues of democracy and human rights. The violation of the basic human rights to access information on internet. Such censorship is said to bring in several controversies, illogical content bans and censorship of websites that are unrelated to content banned by the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA).

In this case Queensland Government Minister for Women, Karen Struthers. Struthers says the wording of the ad is an explicit sexual reference that degrades women.

    The Australian Internet Industry has a list of 16 approved filters. However, testing by Computer Choice found that innocuous content, such as medical sites, were often blocked while some adult content passed through the filter. The filtering software products are ineffective, and Australia cannot control websites hosted outside its borders.

    "Our intention is to stop the implementation of Internet Censorship in Australia. In case you don't know what that means, or who it affects, it is the proposed plan of creating a compulsory internet filter which is intended on removing and banning the access to any website which is deemed "inappropriate". While the idea itself is intended to bring a safer environment for children on the internet, the filter brings about no concern for anybody else who uses the internet, and is a serious violation of our freedom of rights, speech and expression."
