Nope, not when not enough people care too much about it.

Well, one option always available to you is to do what we are absolutely
notorious for, just ignore stupid laws when you can get away with doing
that. People do that all the time with dog licenses, exceeding the speed
limit, using norty words on the phone, etc etc etc.

There arent any really. In theory you can choose to vote for anyone who
claims that they will overturn that stupid legislation if elected, but the practical
reality is that all the major partys do think that there should be some controls
on what can be done on the net, and they just quibble on the detail.

There are a few tiny groups of loonys who advocate complete open slather
on the net and anywhere else for that matter censorship wise but they dont
have a hope in hell of ever forming govt so they are completely irrelevant.

While the majors are all into some censorship, it isnt even
possible to get into a balance of power situation on censorship.

And most people are in favor of some censorship anyway,
even if thats only say snuff movies and child porn.
