PSA: @evrat.bsky.social’s podcast Shell Game, which documents his adventures with a voice clone hooked up to an AI chatbot, is exceptionally good: laugh out loud funny, deeply philosophical, poignant & honest. I listen to a LOT of tech and narrative podcast series and this is my favourite from 2024

We’ve turned kids into outlaws. It won’t work, but we can still make social media safer for them

For those following along at home… the Privacy & Other Legislation Amendment Bill was passed by Parliament this evening! The Act strengthens our enforcement regime & importantly gives me the power to develop a Children’s Online Privacy Code, following in the footsteps of the UK, Ireland & California

Today I issued a determination finding that Bunnings retail group breached Australians’ privacy by collecting their personal and sensitive information through a facial recognition technology system. www.oaic.gov.au/news/media-c...

Bunnings breached Australians’ privacy with facial recognition tool
The system, via CCTV, captured the faces of every person – likely hundreds of thousands of individuals – who entered 63 Bunnings stores between 2018 and 2021.
