Ha. Better from Labor? When it comes to digital rights they are terrible just like the liberal party.
Labor rubber stamped the libs meta data retention and secret software backdoors legislation.
This one is up there with the 2009 Krudd / Conroy clean feed.
The two major parties here are always trying to out do each other when it comes to taking away digital rights.
Circa 2009 we had Labor trying to bring in a nationwide filter. That failed however since then we have had a ton of shit legislation with bi partisan support dropped on us.
My guess is that small targets like the fediverse will likely escape scrutiny because it would be a lot of trouble for a tiny handful of users.
If large numbers of kids started moving here once all the big platforms are blocked, and the pearl clutchers get wind of it, then the govt might move slowly towards trying to do something.
Maybe it varies by industry, but I’ve been a white collar desk jockey for 18 years and I’ve never once heard of lunch theft in real life, only seen on social media.
