Just how big is Australia???

A bit scary. Check out the map at http://www.rsf.org/en-ennemi33177-Australia.html When the whole continent is greyed out, Australia really does make its mark on the world map. This is not a map of which we want to be a part though!

It comes from Reporters without borders. I was interested to check our rating. It is good and has improved a lot over the last five years. But we are being watched along with Malaysia, Belarus... as potential "enemies of the internet". Those ranks already include Iran and China. I haven't participated in any of the internet actions against the "net nanny" push. But seeing that big grey spot on the globe makes me gulp!


For action about this use GetUp!
