Google and Yahoo have joined two Australian organisations calling for a “rethink” of the country’s controversial internet filter plans.The Australian government has announced proposals to introduce a mandatory filter which would block all RC (Refused Classification) content.The groups argue that the subjects covered by RC material are too wide-ranging for a blanket ban.They also warn that the filter will not “effectively protect children”.
