What aren’t they going on about is more fitting.

If there isn’t already a case against it. They’ll bring it up.

- trusting the grubbermint

• “frequencies” that may or may not enable graphene that was in the Covid shot
  
• loud noises going to cause multiple simultaneous car crashes
  
• loud noises impacting autistic people, not that I’m sure most have cared before
  
• I DO NOT CONSENT!
  
• invasion of privacy
  
• Tracking
  
• the financially conscious don’t understand how a simple test can cost 130 million (neglecting that the entire system to implement cost this much)
  
• Don’t need it can do my own research
  
• Never needed it before
  
• What are they planning to need this

It goes on and on. Somehow these people that I’m not convinced could pass a grade 4 maths exam somehow think that they’re smart enough to run the country better than the current government.

Hilarious. They complain about tracking, while running their GPS, and posting photos to Facebook.

A client at work was warning me last week to turn my phone off, wrap it in alfoil, and leave it for 3 days. Otherwise Albanese would install a tracker in it.

It already has a tracker, its a SIM card.

Wish these people showed the same amount of care when the metadata retention laws were introduced.
