Australian teachers advocate a China style firewall for Australian internet users

    SMH article and the actual site

    It's logical really:

    • Some Australian teachers are perceived as sucking by their students
    • The students rate them on line, thus exercising free speech
    • The teachers can't face a life of people knowing that other people think they suck
    • Teacher's federation proposes some crazy firewall scheme


    Hurrah! Censorship is always the answer.

    I love the teacher's union. Almost as corrupt as the police union.

    PS. Woops, seems they ate, shot and left.

    "It is clearly an absolute disgrace that people are anonymously able to make comments about teachers that are quite atrocious," she said.

    I had some pretty attrocious teachers. Actually, what I want is "au.ratemystudents.com".
