This just in from Dr Peter White:
The La Trobe University Online Media Program is pleased to announce the
publication of:
Caroline Kruger. Censoring the Internet with PICS: An Australian
stakeholder
analysis (Research Report No 5)
This report examines one Internet censorship regime, the Platform for
Internet Content Selection (PICS) self-labelling scheme from a number of
perspectives. It examines the push to have PICS adopted in Australia and
around the world and the strengths and weaknesses of the system. Based
on
interviews conducted in September 1997, it shows how PICS is viewed by
representatives of key Internet stakeholders.
The report can be downloaded free of charge from
