And where's the Daily Tele's consistency with no pointers appearing for Sydney's shooting gallery, alcohol outlets or terrorist or gambling hotlines - all relevant to stories it's highlighted on line just this week.

Surely it is better for newspapers to publish this kind of information than to keep it under wraps. Anyone who wants to download porn already knows how to do it. And some less technologically inclined parents who were not aware that Limewire can be used to download porn might now start to take an interest in what their children are using the program for. Plus, if pedophiles are stupid enough to use Limewire, they're going to get caught.
