Eh? Why would we have it ‘live streamed’ anyway?

Besides that; All of our FTA tv channels will blur anything remotely confronting as a matter of course.

You tube is where you’ll get your jollies. And the Australian government can’t/won’t censor that…

The Australian government was able to remove access to social media for under 16's to 'protect them', so why aren't they able to remove access to live streamed murder?

Serious question? Or trolling?
