Electronic Frontiers Australia is planning a number of initiatives in January against the Government's plan to introduced mandatory ISP-side Internet filtering, including National Day of Action on Australia Day, 26 January.
During the week starting Monday 25 January, EFA is encouraging Australian Internet users to take part in its Great Blackout Campaign, by blocking their profiles on Twitter and by 'blacking out' the home page of their web site.
By adding a snippet of HTML code to the code for the site's front page, EFA says a description of the Great Australian Internet Blackout demonstration will appear above a significantly darkened version of the page. Visitors need only to close the blackout box to use the website as usual, and they will only see this message once.
