I checked both stores, cause they are both "good" ones, but newegg was always cheaper for what I wanted, Also, hen I ordered my case it said it would be a week or so to get here, got here in 2 days.

Not that I understand politics, but in Australia, the government's trying to implement ISP content filtering - ala. we block your child porn, and then go on to block everything else and turn into China. Apparently they'll be blocking any MA15+ above games online too...cause...Australia doesn't have a R18+ games classification. And this magically includes flash games and everything.
Makes me kinda wonder what's wrong with governments these days...

That is going to be hell to enforce.
I have no prob with them wanting to keep pedo farkers from sharing their evil vids, but that is the wrong way to do it. You are unfairly lumping good citizens in with them.
Information should be free and unfiltered. People should not be condoned for learning. Just if it hurts someone, or they use said learning to. Don't shoot the messenger, as it were.

Well, it's 'enforced' in that...basically they just block a whole list of sites. Except that...it's also kind of useless since there's quite a few ways around it.
It's also supposed to be for child-porn but obviously they can just extend it however they like, the list of blocked sites isn't public after all.

Time to hack there system, and change the block list a bit. Block wiki. And then remove all trace of the hack. That way, everybody thinks it was an error. Still make a backlash though. And it could be turn off.

I just don't understand why some one would want to look at pictures of children. It's fucking disgusting.

Agreed. Some people just need to go die. Srsly.
mm Unfairly lumping the everyday common person who enjoys a bit of violence-ness with pedo bears is uber annoying >_<;;

But first have there "members" slowly skinned with a butter knife, and then have mice gnaw it down.
I am not really into hurting people, but for them, nothing is bad enough. Devil help anybody I see doing that. Cause there will be no god there.

The Pedo thing is being blown out of proportion. There aren't many pedophiles. They jsut make it seem like everyone and their mom is a pedo!
If they really want to stop a lot of that shit which is annoying. They should check out Daviantart and look at the art most females draw. Which involve naked kiddies banging other naked kiddies. Lol Women like some crazy shit!
Anyway as for the filtering. That's just another way to suppress freedom of speech. Be it the bad kind or the good kind.
Up to you and what you'll do about it. The kids in EE have developed masterful hacking techniques same goes for the Chinese. Information control will always be among the most powerful. But if you keep scratching enough, you'll always get the fruit of your labor!
