Electronic Frontiers Australia is the working name for a soon to be incorporated
body whose broad purpose is to deal with Online civil liberties in Australia.

The newsgroup is intended for general discussion of any issues related to this

Michael Baker. His working definition of the group's objectives are

To work towards a future in which
- Access to electronic communication is as cheap and widely available as access
to telephones is today
- The electronic equivelants of the freedoms of speech, assembly, religion and
the disemination of ideas are upheld
- Privacy for electronic communication is available and upheld 
- The civil liberties of online users are defined and upheld 

The purpose of the corporation will be to define, promote and defend these ideals.

Other appropriate material will include queries, statements, or reports relating
