The Tyrants in Canberra are planning on taking away your right to read posts like this
Stand ready - a campaign to target your Members of Parliament and State Senators to oppose this bill will be starting later today or early tomorrow at the latest.
This page from “Our ABC” Is everything that is wrong with Australia today. When the media comes out in favour of censorship and silencing by the government, we have gone past pure socialism and directly into communist dictatorship mode. I didn’t vote for this. My guess is that you didn’t either…Brave Independent MP, Russell Broadbent, will be making a 5-minute speech this afternoon against this bill. He is to be applauded for his ethical stance.
Media watchdog will have more power to force tech companies to crack down on disinformation under new bill
The federal government will introduce a bill on Thursday that would grant Australia's media watchdog greater powers to pressure tech companies to crack down on misinformation and disinformation on their platforms.
I was read part of the bill yesterday but don’t have it in my hands as of yet. I am expecting to receive a copy soon. The line that was read to me said specifically that medical ‘misinformation’ was one of the types of free speech this bill will target. You know that that means, don’t you? During the next plandemic, we will be unable to communicate openly about the lies and misinformation being spread by the tyrants in Canberra and their tame medical mafia. Bring on the Dark Web, I say!
Under the changes, the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) would have additional information-gathering, record-keeping, code registration and standard-making powers that would allow them to ensure social media platforms are meeting their obligations.
If the platforms do not comply, they could be slapped with a range of penalties, including a maximum fine of 5 per cent of their global revenue.
This legislation specifically targets the social media platforms, and that means Twitter, Substack and others like them because all of the other large platforms have already kow towed to the censorship Gods.
Minister for Communications Michelle Rowland told the ABC that for something to be deemed misinformation and disinformation under the laws, it would have to both be "seriously harmful and verifiably false".
"It is a very high threshold for what constitutes serious harm," she said.
I call bullshit on this one. Michelle Rowland and her ilk will be the ones who decide exactly what “constitutes serious harm”
The last time the TGA issued a COVID jab safety report which in November last year, here is what they reported:
Keep in mind that these reports may be up to 40 times higher, according to biostatistician Dr Jessica Rose, due to underreporting and undercounting from the Federal government’s Database of Adverse Event Notifications (DAEN). But even if these figures are correct, the government’s claims that these jabs were safe was definitely misinformation and disinformation. They should be held accountable under the legislation they are proposing, but we know they won’t be.
Government and Media was exempt
The initial bill, proposed last year, exempted the Federal Government and their mouthpieces in the mainstream media from being held accountable for their statements. That has now been removed but I am 100% positive until proven otherwise that they will NEVER be prosecuted for the egregious and outrageous lies they regularly tell - especially the lies about vaccines and medicine in general.
Ms Rowland said the disinformation spread in the wake of the Bondi stabbing attack earlier this year would fall under the proposed changes because it was "of a kind that was seriously harmful".
I believe she is referring to the truthful reporting on Twitter after the stabbing of Christian Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel. The government was trying to cover up the fact that this stabbing was committed by an Islamic terrorist but even CNN, not known for their attachment to the truth, reported exactly that.
As Orwell famously stated:
“The further a society drifts from the truth, the more it will hate open conversation.”
The only reason why the Government wants to pass this undemocratic and anti-human rights legislation is because they lie 24/7 and the only way they can protect themselves from being held accountable is by doing what they can to prevent open conversation.
Democracy dies in darkness and today, legislation has been proposed that will plunge Australia into eternal night should it be passed.

You said it all: "The only reason why the Government wants to pass this undemocratic and anti-human rights legislation is because they lie 24/7 and the only way they can protect themselves from being held accountable is by doing what they can to prevent open conversation."
I have to use a VPN to access things which I like to watch on TV without adverts or nudging and although I'm in the clear with my substack, I can only access it via an email address and if I can't do that this way, I'll go dark with a VPN instead and if that does not work, then no more substack posts from me - ultimately, to control us all, it is inevitable that "they" will shut down free speach and thought, but then I don't read newspapers or watch free to air TV and I keep my thoughts to myself, except on my American substack - wherever I happen to be - and I won't be misdirected by misinformation or disinformation laws, when I can't be got at, in the first place, like with the disinformation laws in place from early 2020 to May 2023 to try and get me to be vaccinated, which did not work either.
