Aussie Organisation Fighting for R Rating

Electronic Frontiers Australia (EFA) has been fighting for an 'R' rating category in Australia for some time. The EFA is a lobby group which is funded on a subscription basis. They are not just interested in the fight for an 'R' rating category, but are also involved in promoting "online civil liberties". Of course the term civil liberties is a broad definition and can be simply defined as "freedom of speech".

I don't know exactly how active they are as, with all my internet surfing around games, I have never heard of them before and we still don't have an 'R' rating category just yet. The rumours were that one was going to be introduced, but with the Reservoir Dogs game being banned in Australia it looks like we are going to miss out on another title.
