Australian Senate, last sitting of the year. No idea when the Social Media Ban debate is kicking off.

If anyone’s keen, feel free to give a live run-down of anything interesting in this thread.

(sorry about all the edits, just trying to get a decent thumbnail: elevated photo of the Australian Senate)

    So now we all have to hand over ID to the government which will link our real identities to our online activity?

    And that’s a good idea you think?

    Are you sure you can’t imagine a scenario where that might be an issue?

    Actually, don’t worry. Government databases never get hacked, and politicians never deceive the populace for nefarious purposes.
