Since Trump returned to power, Australia's Prime Minister, @AlboMP, has boasted about their relationship. But now, with his new demand for sweeping online censorship, Albanese is willing to sacrifice his nation's coveted minerals deal so he can silence critics of mass migration.

It gets worse, there are three Bills in play: 1. The current Online Safety Amendment Bill before Parliament. 2. The Digital Duty of Care Exposure Draft 3. The Privacy Bill Exposure Draft, which in some respects is even as bad as 2 (and which we have a petition up:

Bill Tracker Follow legislation affecting privacy, free speech, anonymity, encryption, and digital identity. Each record explains what the bill does, where it stands, and why it matters. And which country is first off the mark?

The cornerstone of a functioning democracy isn’t a safer internet. It’s one where the government doesn’t get to decide, quietly and unilaterally, what you’re allowed to say on it and how you interact with it. #NODDOC#

Oh Jodie, your struggles with premenopausal/weight gain issues cannot compare to the problems plaguing ordinary Aussies living in your idiot husband’s Australia. Please spare me the sob story.

Labor’s stealth visa overhaul quietly de-prioritises offshore skilled workers. In other words, curbs migrants ultimately more likely to vote against high income tax. This is outrageous.

Coming up this Tuesday in Bike Boy — the True Crime Podcast, we reveal how a parking fine issued to Catherine Andrews was allegedly torn up with the assistance of now Assistant Commissioner of Police — Brett Curran. Is this matter for IBAC? Should Curran stand down?

The Government's official definition of Islamophobia is already having a chilling effect on free speech. South Wales Police went even further, instructing officers to record any incident that went beyond "legitimate" discussion of Islam. But why should a police officer get to decide what constitutes "illegitimate" discussion of a religion in a country without blasphemy laws? The Free Speech Union threatened South Wales Police with legal action unless it withdrew the guidance, and Claire Coutinho wrote to the Chair of the Equality and Human Rights Commission. The force has now confirmed that it has paused the guidance. The Government's definition is a gold-embossed invitation for public bodies to go even further than ministers in stifling legitimate criticism and debate about Islam. As Claire tells FSU Director of Research and Policy David Rose, if an officer records an incident on the basis that your comments went beyond "legitimate" discussion of Islam, that could appear on an enhanced DBS check and potentially affect your employment prospects. That is effectively the reintroduction of non-crime hate incidents through the back door. There is no democratic mandate for this. Watch the full episode on the FSU YouTube channel 👇

The Online Safety Act has created a minefield for individuals and businesses trying to navigate life online. The consequences of getting any of the Ofcom guidance wrong can be financially ruinous. So, we at @SpeechUnion want to help! Do you run a small to medium website that Ofcom is looking into? Are you likely to fall into the ‘small but risky’ category of providers? Have Ofcom approached you and your business about OSA compliance? If this answer is yes, please contact us at legal@freespeechunion.org

“If older people cannot understand the system, cannot get timely assessments, cannot find available providers, or have to pay privately for essential services, then the system is not yet meeting its promise,” he said.
