    Australian perspective

    Australia are now proceeding with a trial run:

    Communications minister, Stephen Conroy, has announced six ISPs will participate in the first phase of the Federal Government’s controversial plan to introduce mandatory filtering of Australia’s Internet
    However the big boys don't seem to be too impressed with the idea:

    Telstra, the nation’s largest ISP, refused to participate in the trial, calling mandatory Internet filtering an attempt to boil the ocean.
