    You’ve got to hand it to the folks Down Under: they’ve got a real knack for producing, incisive, hilarious videos that warn the general public about invasive technology mandates. First, there was the Kiwi-produced, “Kangaroo Court” short, which shed light on the (thankfully defeated) New Zealand three strikes mandate. Now, there’s this brilliant parody of a Sensodyne toothpaste commercial (embedded above), which was designed to spread the word about a copyright filtering mandate that’s been proposed by members of the Australian parliament. The ad was created by the folks at Get Up! Action for Australia and they’re currently accepting donations in the hopes of raising enough money to run the ad on a Qantas flight that many members of Parliament are likely to be on.
