In Sydney, the state government has approved every data centre application since taking over planning powers in 2021. Three of them had a measurable water reduction plan. In a city that goes into drought every 15 years or so, what could go wrong? www.reuters.com/sustainabili...

Exclusive: In Australia, a data centre boom is built on vague water plans
Authorities in Sydney approved construction of data centres without requiring measurable plans to cut water use, raising concerns the sector's rapid growth will leave residents competing for the resource.

Australia PM, politicians took $147,000 of match tickets while weighing sports betting ban
Australian politicians were gifted about A$245,000 ($147,000) in match tickets over nearly two years by the country's most popular sporting leagues as part of a lobbying campaign against a proposed ban on advertising of online gambling, according to Reuters calculations based on government documents.

Australia is giving YouTube an exemption from its teen social media ban, so I set up three fake underage accounts to see what kind of content kids would be getting. www.reuters.com/technology/d...
reuters.com
Despite Australia's strict social media ban for minors, a YouTube exemption poses risks
Australia's government carved out an exemption for YouTube when it passed laws banning social media access for children under 16, but some mental health and extremism experts say the video-sharing website exposes them to addictive and harmful content.

I’ve seen several references today to only being one week into the new year, but it’s been January 2025 for over three weeks now, right? It’s been a better part of a month since the new year? It’s January 8th? LThat doesn’t seem right. More of January should be used up already. I’m confused.
