    Because it’s been such a ringing success over here. [rolls eyes]

      The worse thing* is that now they will all be known as “Australian-style”.

      We used to be known for our electoral system and a variation of the butterfly swimming stroke. Now we will be known for a lame-arse attempt to restrict people’s access to content “for the children”*

      *this is not actually the worse thing about this legislation; it actually puts at-risk children at more risk.

    wtf, targets is just plain illiterate

    but it’s a more “aggressive” word so they used that instead
