"This is a fabrication. We all know [Australian currency] can be used to buy food, drink, houses, and cars. And it can also be used to buy drugs, guns, ammunition, and even prostitutes. Can you say that the [Aussie Dollar] is illegal and committing obscene acts?"
That in fact wasn’t a quote regarding the upcoming Great Firewall of Australia, it was originally about the Great Firewall of China. That the same point can be made for both should be terrifying.
It saddens me that western countries are critical of China’s Great Firewall when they fail to practice what they preach. The Great Australian Firewall is just another example of western hypocrisy- and just another reason for China to rightly resent the west.
