According to BoingBoing, the australian government is planing to censor any porn (on the web) showing women with A cup sized breasts for fear that it might encourage pedophilia and considers female ejaculation as abhorrent. Your comments ?

I don't know if that is really plausible about A cups being censored (though as a psychologist I can tell you the reason is a load of bullhockey)

But censorship in Australia has the potential to get very bad based on reliable tech news sources I listen to (such as TWIT and Buzz Out Loud). In many ways they are dangerously close to ending up like China. Internet censorship is a dangerous slippery slope and filtration methods are notoriously unreliable or misused for nefarious purposes (like censoring political opposition). Maybe this story from BoingBoing isn't true, but I would be very wary of developments if I were you.
