The Digital Liberty Coalition ('DLC') is a non-profit Australian national organisation that emerged from the public backlash against the Australian government's plans to implement compulsory ISP-level filtering of internet content (cf. proposed compulsory filtering scheme). It consists of various grass roots movements and held its first national rally on 1 November 2008 in several Australian state capitals.[1]

According to the Digital Liberty Coalition website, the aims of the organisation are to promote free speech online, and to challenge the constitutional validity of legislative infringements on civil liberties.[2]
