The South Australian Government passed a Bill late last year which makes it illegal during election time to post political views on a blog or comment without also including a name and address.
The move is seen as a way of preventing people from not taking responsibility for posts which could sway public opinions on the election.
Those that transgress face a fine of A$1250 for citizens whilst if the media fall out of line that figure rises to A$5000
A potent for the future?
