'The pattern is not hard to recognize, because it happens over and over
again. Government officials find some absolute horror — the kind of
thing that no one will stand up for — to push for some form of
censorship. Few fight back because no one wants to be seen as standing
up for something absolutely horrific online, or be seen as being against
"family values." '

Australia, unfortunately, is at very real risk of following the UK down
this particular rabbit hole.
