Colin Jacobs of Electronic Frontiers Australia on digital minister Stephen Conroy’s plan to clean up the Australian online landscape:

“The rest of the world has been smirking at Stephen Conroy’s ill-conceived plan to censor Australia’s Internet for a while now, but a new study is a serious embarrassment.”

From PR practitioner Alexander McNabb:

“I have been hearing a few comments that 2009 will be a good time for public relations because companies will be looking to save money and PR is a better way to reach people for less than advertising. I disagree strongly.”
