Start preparing for the next round, which will be State and Territory criminal legislation covering publication of (and possibly access to) "prohibited" content by end-users. (The Online Services Bill is administrative law covering ISPs.) It may be hard to imagine, but things can get a lot worse yet. We may yet find ourselves in the situation where anyone who gets a bit carried away in aus.politics will, like the editors in the Rabelais case, find themselves facing 2 years in prison or $70 000 fines.
