When it comes to digital rights we have slowly been heading towards fascist dystopia.

I first stated paying attention when Rudd / Conroy tried to filter the internet. Although IIRC mobile phone Know Your Customer came in post sept 2001.

Since then it’s just been a frog in a pot. Meta data retention, assistance and access, identify and disrupt now the hand your ID to every fucking site/app bullshit posing as a kids social media ban.

It’s always been about the ability to silence dissent.

Fuck our politicians. Enjoying saying that while I can. Probably won’t be long before saying that will get your internet cut off.
