Oz senator Stephen Conroy ‘Senator of Facism’
p2pnet news view P2P | Politics:- “Its 12:05pm Melbourne time,” emails Andrew aka Comeoncomcast, going on >>>
And it seems the domain wars have begun 
Sen. Conroys official govt website http://stephenconroy.com.au seems to have been censored, literally.
When you visit the website a big stamp/graphic with the word “Censored” appears with the text ‘redirect in 5 seconds’ at the bottom
The auDA http://auda.org.au (Oz domain name admin) had put the official govt domain of Stephen in ‘pending-delete’ and allowed to expire on the 4th (excerpt from stephen-conroy.com)
The admins of stephen-conroy.com re-registered it and now own it lol
Thanks to the (State of) Victorian Dept of Consumer Affairs (the VDCA) (Melbourne yeeeeah anti-censorship capital of Oz wooo)

Update 04-01-2010
Following a prolonged and public appeal to auDA they ultimately ignored all representations regarding our eligibility to hold the stephenconroy.com.au and related domain names. After the domains were placed in ‘pending-delete’ they were allowed to expire earlier today and were returned to the publicly available pool of names. As they were not immediately registered we were able to re-register, and now once again hold, stephenconroy.com.au.
Sen Conroy is indeed the Senator of Facism
Conroy has gone down in the Australian Book of Infamy as the man who initiated the country’s first Australian censorship act.
Cheers, Andrew.
Stay tuned.
