How many minutes will it take for a 17 year old to break the system this time
About 3 and a half.
This is a fucking waste of taxpayer money and it pisses me off
I have 4 kids, I can parent them without Big Brother. Fuck off Government
Why would a 17 year-old bother breaking it? When I was 17 I would have loved the idea that my younger sibling couldn't be on social media!
The Aussie Gov spent A$84 million on a net content filter only for a teenager to break it within half an hour of it going live. They patched it and he broke that in 40 minutes.
I mean sure. I was just pointing out that your comment would have made a lot more sense in this context if you'd said a 15 year-old, who would actually be affected by the law.
