![]() If you are Traveling to Australia you could be searched for porn !
Australian customs officers have been given new powers to search incoming travellers' laptops and mobile phones for pornography. Australian officials now had an unfettered right to examine travellers' electronic devices, marking the beginning of a new era of official investigation into people's private lives. Customs confirmed the new reference to "pornography" on the Incoming Passenger Cards and the search powers, acknowledging that searches conducted by officers may involve the discovery of "personal or sensitive possessions".

Well, seeing as certain types of porn is illegal in Australia now, it seems sensible for the lawkeepers to search for illegal contraband, doesn't it?

What's about a constitutional privacy? I mean the right for a private life? What if they will reveal/exposure some sensitive private info while they are "inspecting" your electronic devices? What if I have some telephone numbers I don't wanna others to see? What if I have some docs with medical exam results (they can belong to me of to my patients)? What if I have there my private diary, private photos etc?

Just some hints... :
- use postal mail if you have any DVD's, just ship them to your hotel or friends in Australia - encrypt your complete Operating System and use a hidden partition for your porn - forget all p-magazines, toys or other related stuff, put all of that in a big box and mail it - use TrueCrypt > http://www.truecrypt.org - it's free ![]() |

I wonder how would they search my hidden and encrypted volumines... Anyway, this is ridiculous! Australia is now worse than USSR. I say fuck Australia. I will never visit it till their fucked up undemocratic government step aside. And I really wanted to visit it one day... now, not anymore.

Australia has turned into one giant nanny state. It is a joke, and the joke is just getting better ... when you think the wankers in charge cant go any further they continue to surprise.

Mostly sarcastic actually. They got succeed in perverting the meaning of words: "democracy", "freedom" and "liberalism". The cost of these words in modern Western community is nothing. The people there don't understand that they already live almost like we did in the USSR times. They have nothing to compare with, so they don't release what's going on around.

Does it have a Constitution - the law above any other laws?
BTW, do the US laws really different? In Australia prostitution is legal, but many kinds of porn and even computer games are not. In the USA the same shit but vice versa. You think I'm wrong? P.S. I do remember the Soviet times...

certain types of drugs are illegal it seems sensible they can stick a broomstick up your ass to check for drugs doesn't it . After all if you have nothing to hide your anus will be empty right ?

That's insane. So they're going to send you BACK to where you came from just because you have a laptop with you that you refuse to let them look at? That's ridiculous. What's the difference if you bring in a laptop with porn on it, or if you bring in an empty laptop, then download a ton of porn right in the airport after customs?
Idiotic.

Drugs are illegal, border police look for drugs. Usually with an xray. Often without shoving anything up one's arse. In fact, AFAIK, they don't shove things up your arse, they have a clearl plastic lavatory and sit you in a room and wait for you to shit. Which, eventually, you will do. Explosives are illegal. They swab bags with a little cloth. Not anal fisting. \ Porn is illegal, so surely the law enforcers need to try and stop porn as well. Clearly, it is a stupid law. No one is doubting that. But I don't think it's quite the same as having a broom shoved up your botty. |

The more I think about this, the more vague it becomes.
What part of porn exactly is illegal? Engaging in porn? (no one in Australia fucks?) Possessing porn? What if you don't 'possess' any porn but you just view it online? How the hell can that be illegal? And if it is, aren't they really saying that "The Internet is illegal."?

Prostitution isn't a constitutional matter in Australia, neither are the types of censorship or privacy issues you mention. Australia essentially has fewer 'safeguards' against such legislation owing to the lack of explicit civil liberties etc. That doesn't help when the Government is sees fit to create seemingly fascist legislation for every issue that crops up. |

I suppose when it's viewed by another person. Whether in real time or on pics or video, I would guess that's when fucking qualifies as porn. Although I'm sure there are plenty of religious zealots that actually do believe any form of fucking qualifies as porn.
And if my qualification is true, then wouldn't the customs agents be engaging in an illegal activity? (viewing the porn on your laptop)

In terms of tangible goods, I believe the law applies more to the distribution side of refused material. If you try to distribute it, you're breaking the law. It goes without saying that customs will confiscate refused material given the chance. I believe the Government is still trying to set up internet filtering / censorship. The usual tactic is pretend to do nothing, wait for outrage to subside, pass bill on the sly. The implications of such will be extending the ban on refused material to the internet (in addition to a bunch of other 'unacceptable' content). Naturally it's the Government's duty to deem what and what's not appropriate. Recently:
Not sure exactly what's been written into law, but this stuff is on the table every month. |

It's definitely getting a bit ridiculous. But that said, everyone is still relaxed as ever outside political circles... I guess that's why so much rubbish passes in parliament. It's probably still completely tourist friendly unless your buddy is concerned with looming internet censorship or banned porn dvds.

damn I went and lived/worked in Australia twice, once in 2006 for 4 months then again in 2008 for 9 months.
Both times I went with an external HD chock full of porn. The customs guys didn't even look at it twice when I went thru. Sucks this is happening now, it's a great country imho.. ![]() |

So you can hire a hooker there, but can't bring your dirty electronic media so you can jack off instead of buying a hooker?
I get it, they are stimulating the Prostitution part of the economy. Yeah, makes total sense. Maybe that's why porn is illegal in Thailand, but you can buy, well rent and fuck just about anything with a pulse there. It's economically sound really. (yeah right)

I went through immigration a week ago and ticked the 'no' box.
When you go through US customs, do you tick 'yes' that you're in for immoral/debase purposes or to consume / sell drugs? Of course you don't. |

US customs search your files on your notebook too, what's the difference?!?!
You CAN bring porn into Australia as long as it complies with the local laws. And yes, customs do watch the porn on DVD or your notebook to evaluate it IF they are in doubt. If the porn is against the local laws, your notebook gets confiscated and you get fined, but you can still enter the country.
