On the other hand, mass metadata trawling is very very good at identifying larger and more vulnerable groups. Jews. Part-Jews. Timorese, Gypsies, Bosnians, Armenians and Overseas Chinese. Friends of one of the above. Gays, right-wing political activists, left-wing political activists. Artists. Small businesspeople. School teachers, union organisers, Catholics, people who have read a foreign newspaper.
Each of these groups has been targeted for extermination in living memory by at least one government in our Asia/Pacific region or in Europe. It just needs the right "perfect storm" of national crisis, scapegoating, secrecy, and leadership. And in almost every one of those cases telephone call metadata was utilised by the perpetrators to aid target selection. Internet metadata is much richer, more detailed, more powerful and more accurate.

This is your first post?
You seem very ready and very willing to defend the OP's opinion, as if it was your own ...
You're a puppet of Bunyip aren't you?

You have sigs turned off, I see.
It's my RP puppet, I was looking at factbook formatting and forgot that it wasn't my main factbook.

You realise half the polices that the Abbot government are criticised for are Turnbills right?
Right?
He's the communications minister so... NBN?
He's only going to be a better speaker, the Coalition government isn't going to change their policy. You want Labour back in power.

The majority of Australian people are not very motivated or sharp unfortunately...we were raised in a country that did not experience the horrors of war to appreciate how great the value of freedom is.
Our generations now nothing about the sacrifice for freedom except through distant stories from Gallipoli, WWI, WWII, Korean War, Vietnam. Fighting for X right is a very distant concept in Australian society. It is somewhat of a curse to be a lucky country, born into a great society without needing bitter experiences to enjoy the labors of yesterday.

I have sigs enabled. I just didn't look.
So you started a thread with a forum virgin nation. Then posted to the thread, with a forum virgin nation. And now you're posting to it with your main?
Anyway, I'm reading your sources. They're both from The Age I notice.

What lesson is that?
Their administration was a little rocky but they got shit done in a terrible global economy.
High percentage debt to GDP? You mean 19.5 percent? You mean an economic health criterion that every single economist has dissagreed with aside from the guy who wrote the inital paper? You mean that the Coalition govenrment has made worse anyway.
Or do you mean the carbon tax? Perhaps you mean the policy that actually reduced carbon emittions by 2% in a nation with an increasing economy? You mean the policy that litterally had no impact on the cost of products we consume and maybe costed a household an extra 20 cents per day?
Or do you mean their promises to preserve and improve health care, education, communications instead of just the defense budget, and when I say the defense budget I mean throwing money at mother fucking Locheed Martin for their god damn boondoggle instead of giving our serving men and women a cost of living increase while they increase their own wages?
Which specific lesson are you talking about? I'd sure as shit make sure you check that it wasn't part of the media scare campaign that put us in this situation to begin with before you put finger to keyboard.
... I got a little carried away. But the more I think about it the more I get angry.
