    You mean to tell me that storing more data means more data gets exposed during a breach‽ How could anyone have predicted this‽

    Oh wait. Everyone in the industry said as much before the law was passed. 🙄

      Remember how the entire telco/IT industry recommended a full fibre broadband network, but the LNP said they could do it faster, better, cheaper… and are currently doing it twice for thrice the price? Yeah… Tell me again why anyone trusts politicians?

      Interesting tidbit from Labor (Jacinta Collins): “…We accept that and we take responsibility for that…”

      Glad to see they’re admitting they’re the ones responsible for this mess. Now, how are you going to compensate me for my stolen data?

    Exactly what we said would happen in the first place. Libs really fucked us over with their stupid first attempt at data and cyber sec legislation, so misinformed. Almost impressive how firmly they had a grasp of the wrong end of the stick when it comes to data and privacy policies.
