The Australian totalitarian megathread - She won't be right mate.

Because this is Australia my man. All it seems to take to get into every database the government has is a fat slav in a tracksuit listening to Hardbass.
Basically just this. Instead of services requiring multiple kinds of ID verified through different agencies (Passport Office, BDM Registries, Road Departments, etc..), the new Digital ID scheme is intended to replace (more like supplement really, its entirely optional at the moment) all of those with a single point of failure system which will most definitely be targeted by hackers every single day of the week as it would make identity theft so unbelievably simple if implemented as proposed.

And of course, being an Australian Government service, its security will be equivalent to that of a door with a drilled out lock.
 
Rise in extremists who want to trigger 'race war' in Australia, ASIO warns

There has been a rise in activity from racist and nationalist extremists who want to spark a race war in Australia over the last year-and-a-half, the nation's top security agency has warned.

In a submission to a parliamentary inquiry into far-right extremism, ASIO said ideologically motivated violent extremists (IMVE) accounted for about a quarter of its priority counter-terrorism work.

"IMVE – particularly nationalist and racist violent extremism – remains a threat and its adherents will continue to engage in offensive behaviours," the security agency said in its submission.

"IMVE views persist, and adherents are weaving new issues into their conspiracy theories and anti-establishment views...

"Over the last 18 months, we have seen an uptick in the number of nationalist and racist violent extremists (NRVEs) advocating sabotage in private conversations both here and overseas.

"It is particularly pronounced among NRVE 'accelerationists' - meaning extremists who want to trigger a so-called 'race war'."

ASIO said many of those have been inspired by the Christchurch shooting of 2019, which was carried out by an Australian with racist, far-right views.

It also said the main threat from ideological extremists was from so-called lone wolf actors – like the Australian behind the Christchurch attack – and that racist and nationalist groups were more focused on recruitment rather than planning attacks at the moment.

"ASIO's biggest IMVE-related concern is the threat from lone actors who could move to violence without warning," it wrote.

"While we remain concerned about IMVE, we assess the vast majority of established nationalist and racist groups are more likely to focus on recruitment and radicalisation rather than attack planning in the foreseeable future."

ASIO also pointed to the risk posed by online forums in allowing for the radicalisation of extremists across the globe, particularly in the wake of increasing internet activity during the pandemic.

Unlike the inquiry it provided the submission to, the security agency steered clear of referring specifically to right-wing extremism.

"Threats are increasingly intersecting, emerging from new places and blurring traditional distinctions," it told the inquiry.

"To more accurately reflect the nature of the threat, ASIO moved away from using the terms right-wing extremism and left-wing extremism in 2021, and instead refers to two categories of politically motivated violence: religiously… and ideologically motivated violent extremism.

"Not every ideologically motivated extremist is automatically a left-wing or right-wing extremist.

"There is a cohort of individuals motivated by a hybrid of conspiracies, grievances and anti-authority beliefs. It is neither helpful nor accurate to assign these individuals a place on the political spectrum."

The inquiry is due to deliver its report by December 6.

In an effort to justify their budget and existence, ASIO invents new acronyms to scaremonger the geriatrics in government to give them more power to spy on people’s private data.

Key takeaways are:
  • It isn’t helpful to call extremists left-wing or right-wing anymore (probably because the violent crazies are all trannies and lefties now). The journo doesn’t care though and keeps hammering home right-wing extremism.
  • Extremist groups are in a recruitment phase but the real threat comes from loners. Please remove encryption and let us spy on citizens with impunity daddy.
  • They spent millions of dollars workshopping the new NRVE acronym (probably).
  • Lonewolves want to trigger a race war. How do they know this unless they’re actively monitoring people’s private data?
  • Muh anti-establishment is a threat. Nooooooo.
  • Lots of other inane shit you’d expect from over socialised faggots who dress up as nazis to justify their employment and shit haircuts.

If your referring to MyGovID I suspect its a way to have a central point to be able to streamline verification of identity documents as I understand currently government departments have to have complex privacy disclosure agreements with each other (federal and statewide if your including licenses) to be even be able to verify documents.

however putting this as an app to self-serve on someones phone does open the door to an additional point of failure as the app does notify you when the app is used on a new device (via email and a push notification) this can be easily missed. But it always seems to be a big balancing act between ease of access to government online services but having enough roadblocks to stop indians from being able to scam into them.

in other news the government has seen fit to politely ask our burger overlords if we can have our journo back
 
can't reply to homofascism, but
"While we remain concerned about IMVE, we assess the vast majority of established nationalist and racist groups are more likely to focus on recruitment and radicalisation rather than attack planning in the foreseeable future."

Translation: There's no real threat in terms of organisation. We just need to expand the scare campaigns and slosh more billions into Omidyar and ASPI related (american surveillance state) projects because trust me bro.

"There is a cohort of individuals motivated by a hybrid of conspiracies, grievances and anti-authority beliefs. It is neither helpful nor accurate to assign these individuals a place on the political spectrum."

This is an honest and accurate statement, from the perspective of the ruling class. Normal people aren't interested in acceleration- acceleration is interested in them. Economy, social cohesion, and trust in political/media institutions are in precipitous decline, and the contradictions fueling this are becoming unmanageable for the elites. Of course the average person's grievances with the state of things is growing. All of this focus-grouped IMVE incel extremism horseshit is geared towards taking the campaigns of years past (islamic terror, "far right", "foreign influence" etc) and generalising them enough to apply to the average person. Your average wignat or maoist are absolutely not the main target of this- it's working people taking to the street, as they did during lockdowns- and they admit as much.

This is fucked

Two men have just spoken to Nine News about helping a baby and its mother who were both bleeding.

The pair, who indicated they were brothers, said they saw a man “run up to the woman with the baby”.

“We got them into the store ... rang for help,” one of the men said.

The men said the baby’s mother had been stabbed, and they were trying to compress the baby’s wounds, including using shirts from the shop.


If the fucker isn't dead, they should hook his balls up to a car battery for the rest of his long and miserably painful life.
