Hi, i am from Victoria, i was wondering whether my internet surfing and
newsgroups can be monitored by my ISP, do i have a right to any privacy?
Also is there anything i have to watch out for, in terms of content, is
there anything i cant view as a home user. Any response would be helpful.
Thanks

Can your internet surfing and newsgroups be monitored by your ISP? Yes.
Why they would be interested is another matter entirely. They are
probably far too busy to even bother.

Do I have a right to privacy? Nope. Some talk about "implied" rights but
these have to always be tested in the courts.

Is there anything I can't view? Ummm... dunno... what were you thinking
of looking at?
