EDITOR'S NOTE

Good afternoon,

Senator Conroy's office was buzzing today at the prospect of Internet Service Providers sitting down at the table with the Government to discuss an eSecurity code.

While it is unclear who the half-dozen ISPs that took part in the meeting are, the Government says service providers are ready to play ball on internet security issues.

How much responsibility should an ISP take with regards to the content on its network? Tell us what you think.
