A Requiem For The Lashpair.

Cuz there ain't no frigging way in hell your posts are going to make it through the Great Firewall Wall of Australia.

Right now, the system is in the testing stages, but network engineers are now saying that there's no way to opt out entirely from content filtering.

What a load of BS. Psh. Of course you can opt out... oh yeah... maybe not. I guess there's always proxies - unless those are somehow all blocked too.

So much for all the plans to move Downunder if McCain wins. Does this affect New Zealand too?

Yeah.... They've lost their God given right to sneak a peek at porn sites while their parents aren't watching!

1. Get a cheap shell account in Europe (probably Germany) or the US. $5/month or less.
2. ssh -D 1080 lashbear@your.shell.account
3. Set your Internet proxy to localhost:1080

Done!

This post heading is one of the most worrisome I' ve ever seen! Glad it didn't actually portend tragedy.

I'm confident the lashpair will find a way.
