LulzSec, as a Telstra customer, thank you!

Are you switching from Telstra though? From seeing how the Internet breaks in USA [0] and China [1], it's discerning and goes against network neutrality.

Some people I spoke to that are against the Internet filter say they are not switching because of the contract. I pointed out that the filter is not voluntary for Telstra customers and so it's not part of contract unless they remain within a period of time. Then they tell me they don't want change.

You can't quit Telstra. It's almost a monopoly in rural Australia.
