It doesn't seem difficult to just fill out whatever form it is and send a lot of complaints about objectionable content. My current understanding is that this is effectively the same thing as a YouTube DMCA claim but without the ability to actually remove the content - and that includes that it had to have been filed by someone.KF should send a takedown notice to Australia.
One person, probably a few, not even necessarily Australian considering it's an online form, complained. This letter could be exactly the same as your standard internet takedown - that is, boilerplate suggestions of legal action and an official letterhead designed to try and scare people who don't know their rights into doing what they're told.
If there are further consequences, like the Farms being blocked in some way, then the Australians are more cucked. But if it's just the equivalent of a government hotline, where people write in to say 'no bully plz', the government says 'stop bully', and then nothing happens if they don't stop - or in this case, also don't have jurisdiction - then it's just yet another government boondoggle that demonstrates no understanding of the internet and is a waste of money and time. Something endemic to every government, not just Australia's.
So I'm far more interested in how this plays out, rather than the initial message. Sure, it's dumb as fuck, but is this the opening salvo of some deep idiocy? Or the one and only response, set off by a couple of SJWs filling out a form, something anyone could do if they wish? Enquiring minds want to know...
