A communications minister touring the world and boasting about a social media ban (that isn’t even in place yet!) instead of working with families and young people to deal with its impacts, is plain wrong. Young Australians deserve far better.

An ABC IT contractor is leaking trans misogyny about the ABC to the Australian
Exclusive!! The Australian’s anti-trans campaign continues with a source who “doesn’t work at the ABC but knows more about its inner working than most who do”.
They are an IT professional “by day” and an “internet sleuth by night” running ACON Exposed.

They're also claiming we can't let Australia miss out on the economic benefits of AI but what's weird is there are still no proven economic benefits. In fact an MIT study found 95% of organisations studied got ZERO return on their AI investments: www.axios.com/2025/08/21/a...

An actual decent FOI law change (rather than the friendless bill before the parliament now) would be to actually have some sort of penalty for documents of government that should be retained for FOI purposes but aren't (such as disappearing messages in certain apps)
