Hello.
Think about where you’ve been in the last three months, what web sites you’ve visited, what files you’ve downloaded, who you spoke with and texted on the phone and where you were when you made those calls.
Anything in there you may not want other people to know about?
Anything there you’d like to be kept secret?
Hold on to your hats people, it won’t be secret for long.
I’m all for the protection of the public, we live in a free society and that freedom comes with some cost.
Warrantless tracking of phone calls, location and internet activity?
That’s a price that I don’t think I’m willing to pay.
At least get a judge or something involved, at least have some kind of regulation going on.
My parents brought us to this country after fleeing similar oppression in Europe.
Many people have come to be in Australia to be away from this kind of thing.
I don’t want it to happen here.

That is frightening Andrew!It seems like it’s already a ‘done deal’ – and with both parties support. My husband’s family is also from Eastern Europe, and the surname I now carry was made up by my father-in-law to escape the attention of the KGB. Have people really got such short memories?
An individual’s privacy should be protected at any price.Despite this, my business was approached by the CIA, some 10 years ago, asking us to give certain companies a wide berth or risk losing the right to visit the U.S. – spooky. Seems privacy is an illusion…..
Sadly,the world my children are growing up in is not what their grandparents would have wanted for them.
The obvious invasion of privacy is one thing but the potential for abuse of these laws is far more worrying.
We would like to think that the people in control of these new regulations would use them solely for the protection of the public and to uphold the laws of this country, but would they?
We’ll surely see blackmail, corruption and abuse of power if these laws get through. It’s chilling!
Just love being a nobody!
Hats off to you and James for keeping AI rolling along last night.
The way you both sweep in like knights in shining polyester and rescue contestants on the verge of tears is quite charming. Last night I thought Jimbo was going to clock one of the judges……could Jimbo clock one of the judges, preferably Dicko?
Dicko – proof of male menopause.
Yuuuuuck
That’s it! I’m moving.
I will be disconnecting my phone and internet.
Who will come to my funeral? INXS are going to be playing….
creepy…veeeeeery creepy
Yeah, Michael is coming and everything…
I certainly wouldn’t want people to know that I read your blog.
