What we do is basically for people who are having censorship problems in their home country, we relocate the information electronically so it' served from a different country. Somewhere where the laws are liberal enough to accept the information. In that way, people can publish their information electronically and avoid prosecution. It can be anything from totally normal corporate stuff to totally offbeat stuff like drugs, pornography, even political stuff. for instance, in Japan, it's illegal to publish anything political on the Internet. A lot of people don't realise that.

To begin with, people thought the Internet was totally safe, that it offered total freedom. That was until people started getting arrested because they were publishing, or even downloading, stuff that their government said was illegal. And in some countries, that can mean death by hanging! We're starting to get a lot of response from countries like Singapore, where the political situation is so intense.

We are worried about our security. We discovered recently that we probably won't be allowed back into Germany because we carry the leftwing radical magazine on our website. According to the German government, anyone involved with the magazine is a "terrorist". But other places in Europe are extremely liberal: Denmark, Finland, Holland, for example. In fact, we'll be moving the company to Holland next year. As for the UK, the English are just so anally retentive about sex it's unbelievable. Australia looks to be going the same way; they're just waiting for the right test case to happen. The people making decisions are just bureaucrats, basically. They've got nothing better to do than upset perverts like us!

In terms of the material we accept, we take everything individually and look at it for what it is. If it's legal in only one country in the world, for example, we'd have to sit down and really think about that. But basically, as long as it's legal, then we can do it. The stuff we're dealing with at the moment ranges from Australian government to pornographic sites and that'll spead even further as people come up with really new and interesting ways of using the Web. The Web is still only in its infancy. Globally speaking, still, not many people use it.
