After several attempts at convincing them to give us reasonable time to
reply we made a last-ditch attempt at 16:10AEDT stating that we provide a
consultancy product with 'Stephen Conroy' in it's name. We hoped that this
would at least enable us to stay up over the weekend, but they didn't want
to know. We believe that auDA had decided to pull our registration
regardless of what we did.
After we were ultimately unable to obtain appropriate advice and
representation in the manifestly inadequate time they pulled the domain,
sending the site off-line. We've temporarily moved to stephen-conroy.com
while we assess and respond to auDA's actions. Please update your bookmarks.
During the course of the weekend we have obtained advice from several
sources and had discussions with the extremely helpful guys at EFA, who have
agreed to provide their support. They also confirmed having received
numerous other complaints from members of the public regarding auDA's
actions.
We've received widespread support and messages of condemnation aimed at auDA
for their actions, which seem to have been rightly interpreted as a
manifestly political move.
We'd like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their support and
state that we WILL BE fighting what we consider to be a heavy-handed attempt
to silence us. If you think this is as ridiculous as we do feel free to
contact auDA directly and register your disapproval:

Update 20-12-2009: It seems that auDA's actions have drawn almost universal
condemnation over the weekend. See what people are saying on Twitter HERE
and articles at Stop Internet Censorship HERE, iTWire (Article #1) HERE, and
Deography HERE.

A fair question, when your name is I_C_Jew...@PariahIsrael.con

Blowjob boy couldn't tell the difference.

Agreed; those who registered the domain name are not claiming it either,
but they're hoping that ill-informed people will mistakenly assume
an association.
Why is it not sufficient to get across the political message
with a domain name such as against-australian-filtering.com
or similar? Why is the misrepresentation so important?

WTF are U on about?
I'm just highlighting the campaign against internet filtering.
Most free thinking people are against government intervention on internet
censorship, do you want to live in a fascist state like China?
From what I can see the "western democracies" are slowly sliding towards a
fascist states while the worker bees "drones" are a sleep.
Because that idiot in Canberra (canberra is that not a remover of human
nightsoil??) is making out that they want to stop Kiddieporn wnen what they
want to do is make us another China and I don't have the eyes for it.

And so you believe that you can correct that situation by misrepresentation.
Good luck with that; you may have many a fool join you.
