I think it's an unspoken rule since the Whitlam incident that no opposition will ever try to block supply.

Hello Mr. Ludlam,

First of all, brilliant speech yesterday.

Secondly, why isn't the focus of the NBN on the upload speed that FTTH is able to provide for businesses and households that will truly revolutionise this country but on the download speed?

I frequently have to backup my files from uni to SkyDrive (now renamed to OneDrive) and the slow upload speeds mean that it is actually "sooner, cheaper and more affordably" for me to physically get to my uni that involves a 2 hour round trip and use their internet to back up my work than it is for me to wait it out at home. And these files are only 150 MB.

What are you and the Greens doing to try and spread the message that upload speeds are equally important to download speeds when it comes to truly experiencing the Internet in this day and age?

EDIT: Thirdly, what's your stance on the unreasonable and quite honestly mindless censorship and prohibition of games in this country? Even the R18+ rating has restrictions in it which in my opinion is absolutely absurd considering the range of other things they allow within the framework classification. I can make a game that completely glorifies murder and provide detail instruction on how to butcher a person but the moment I mention anything to do with gaining rewards by interacting with drugs it's an instant Refused Classification.

What will EFF do on its part to support the FTTP campaign?

Which was why I said I'm inclined to think that it's the de facto rule now, that no one should ever block supply.
