EDITOR'S NOTE

Good afternoon,
Australian Government websites suffered a DDoS attack by hacker group 'Anonymous' today.
The sites have been intermittently offline all day in protest of Conroy's internet filter, to the dismay of other filter critics like Internode engineer Mark Newton who said: "They don't 'send a message', just make geeks work harder."
Also in the news is Seven Network director Ryan Stokes, who said that the television network doesn't know how to stop illegal content sharing.
What do you think?
