Abbottt said he wants to improve Australia Intelligence and then mentioned Meta data something (and his whole cabinet know nothing about, Turnbull excepted)

Well mate if that's true leave the country and go back to the country you were born in.
(You'll raise the average IQ's of both nations)!

Welcome back to the Cold War—except contrary to their Bond fantasies, it's Abbott and his party hacks who are the in-bred, bumbling Luddites trapped in the 19th century.

Even worse, when their ignorance is exposed, they wheel out the Minister for Old Money himself, Malcolm "Bleed the Nation Dry" Turnbull, who feigns enough knowledge to deceive people into propping up his buddies' parasitic utility investments.

The sooner this f*** wit and his bunch of cronies leave parliament the better. They're ruining the country. Public safety my arse. Just another way they can control and monitor us and our usage. We'll all end up footing the bill of course. We need to seriously stand up to these pricks. Enough is enough.

All these anti Piracy and web gathering measures only work against casual internet users. For example, I'm a well hardened copyright infringer, all the way back to pre internet days, through Napster etc. I know how to avoid getting caught. I'm by no means a volume copier, but you can bet those who are know just as much if not more than I do. Using a VPN means when your torrent gets tracked, it only gets tracked to an anonymous server in another country and the VPN companies don't keep data on who is using those servers, in fact I signed up for the service completely anonymously and paid with a gift card.

Of course, Sharon from accounts who downloads the latest Game of Thrones to keep up with office discussion, she has no idea. She gets caught and gets a letter from a lawyer saying if she doesn't pay $5000 dollars they'll sue her for $100,000. (This is what happens in the USA). Despite having a weak case, these letters score over and over again.

This government is adamant on attacking the low end of town, from the unemployed, the student and the lower middle classes who can't afford Foxtel. They've lost just about every support demographic they have apart from big business (small business is pissed off about the impost that 40 job applications per unemployed person per week will have). One Term Tony is going to be a reality unless they make a U-Turn quickly on a number of issues.

From before the election (such as it was)

LABOR'S crackdown on the fringe benefits tax for cars would be dumped by the Coalition, Tony Abbott says, as jobs within the industry face the axe.
The Opposition says it will block the proposed changes to company-car tax rules which it says have already led to hundreds of job losses.

Here are Holden and Toyota workers learning
a. $50 million is too much for Australian economy to bear.
(Auto industries all over the world are subsidised in one way or the other).
b. Prime Minister Tony Abbott believes many Holden and Toyota workers will be "liberated" by the loss of their jobs.
c.they won't be needing to drive cars anymore!

Team Australia's foot firmly in mouth is at it again!

Scotland goes to the polls on September 18 to decide whether to break away from the 307-year-old union with England.
“What the Scots do is a matter for the Scots and not for a moment do I presume to tell Scottish voters which way they should vote,” Mr Abbott said.
“As a friend of Britain, as an observer from afar, it’s hard to see how the world would be helped by an independent Scotland.
“I think that the people who would like to see the break-up of the United Kingdom are not the friends of justice, the friends of freedom,
and the countries that would cheer at the prospect… are not the countries whose company one would like to keep.”
A spokesman for Scottish first minister Alex Salmond, who is leading the pro-independence campaign, said Mr Abbott* had “put his foot in it”.
* for those unaware of the fact, Abbott is a Pomm
