TODAY: THE 9PM SIERRA OSCAR LIMA (OR LLAMA). @NewtonMark will be flying me from Sydney’s Bankstown Airport to Wagga Wagga to Swan Hill to Goolwa. Here’s the aircraft VH-SOL and the flight plan. #9pmsol @NewtonMark I’m recording podcast bits en route, maybe streaming live. Aircraft comms and ambient sound into Zoom H6, which records. Audio from there into the iPad and @spreaker Studio for streaming. No promises on the latter bit though. #9pmsol

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

“The ABC has quietly killed a controversial piece on corporate tax” crikey.com.au/2018/02/16/abc… And yes, of course it’s still in the Wayback Machine. I predict quite a bit of Streisanding on this one.
