The Australian government has released the draft Assistance and Access Bill 2018, legislation intended to help law enforcement agencies bypass encrypted communications. homeaffairs.gov.au/about/consulta… I’ll live-tweet my reading of it in this thread. #aabill
The Bill is a messy 176 pages, because it amends a bunch of Acts. The Explanatory Document is 110 pages. There’s also an Industry Fact Sheet, a document about Limitations and Safeguards, and three documents about how the search warrants will work. Much joyous reading! #aabill
I’ll start with the Explanatory Document, because it explains (der!) what the legislation is meant to do, and points to the relevant bits in the Bill. It’s also less likely to make my brain explode. #aabill
