Teaching Encryption Soon to Be Illegal in Australia (bitcoinist.net)

Is there a culture of civic disobedience in Australia?

You could have some people teaching number theory to people in public places as a form of protest.

"Teachers at schools or universities will have to be approved to teach encryption if students are outside of Australia."

Sorry Australia but this is just stupid and a little racist.

Given their first link 404's and the DSGL list has an exemption for basic research and stuff in the public domain, I'm hoping that this is just misinterpretation or FUD.

I had a bit of a dig through the defense site and after a bit of a cursory search on encryption couldn't find anything to suggest what this site is claiming.
