I have Ublock Origin Lite, Disable AI and Privacy Badger extensions on Vivaldi mobile. Very happy.

Yep, I should have clarified, the NZ government screwed it up. Such a shame. The rest of the world cannot distinguish between the Aussie and NZ flags 🇦🇺🇳🇿

The process was flawed I guess. There were excellent entries, but the finalist was termed a 'tea towel' by many..

Canada did it 61 years ago - in 1965. 🇨🇦 I don't know why other countries are taking so long. New Zealand almost did, but screwed it up.

It will be interesting to see David Shoebridge in Parliament now that he's Greens leader. We won't see him in Senate Estimates anymore.

I'm a decades long St George Bank client, that was sadly bought by Westpac many years ago. Palantir's infiltration of Westpac, and all the secrecy, makes me furious and sick. I hope @getup.org.au can shame them and get the same result as Coles. #Palantir, get the fuck out of Australia!

I saw the exhibition in Sydney. Just incredible and extremely thought provoking, weeks afterwards.

With luck, the Greens will get as much publicity as PHON in MSM ✌️💚

He's an absolute thorn in PW's side. Have you seen him challenge her in Senate estimates over recognition of the Palestine embassy in Australia? All she can do is accuse him of gathering SM clickbait. She can do nothing to counter his arguments and criticism of government. youtu.be/Rh3CbCgShVI

I'm also working to free myself of USA tech. Vivaldi, Ecosia, Marginalia all fit the bill. Shame Bluesky and Signal are USA based.

Have used Ecosia for over a year. It's fine except for the AI option that pops up now and again even when turned off in settings. Trying out #Marginalia Seems pretty cool, and 100% AI free.

Conflict of interest, ya think?? "Greens finance & public service spokesperson Barbara Pocock said that given Deloitte’s history w/ the tobacco industry & the lack of information, there were questions to answer over whether the arrangement represents a conflict of interest." 🙏 #SenatorBarbaraPocock

It makes one wonder if US federal government has always held Canada in contempt?

Bush failed to mention Canada in the list of nations thanked for aiding the USA after 9/11, during his speech to Congress nine days later. "Canada was omitted because it is easy to forget friends whose governments give you no cause to remember them." www.theglobeandmail.com/news/world/c... #9/11

If you're in London, well worth checking out Rebel Tech Alliance at the Love & Rage event. Details below. Wish I could go, but Australia's a bit too far away 😂

I was able to speak to my MP's office staff who, as far as I can tell, accurately wrote down my concerns to pass onto Zhi Soon. I expect this is as good as sending a letter or email. 🤞 #ASIOAmendmentBill2025 #Greens

Called my state MP Mark Coure, Oatley, to register my opposition to the NSW government's use of Cellebrite, surveillance technology developed by Israel. It's easy to call your state MP. Speak up against authoritarianism. Vote #Greens @davidshoebridge.bsky.social

Called my MP Zhi Soon, electorate of Banks, voiced my opposition to Parliament's guillotining the ASIO Amendment Bill (No. 2) 2025. And my opposition to the use of surveillance technology cellebrite by government agencies. It's easy to call. Find your MP contact: www.aph.gov.au/Senators_and...

🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: ASIO no. 2 is being rushed through parliament this week. This is the bill that allows warrantless questioning by ASIO, without a lawyer, and you can't tell a soul without being sent to prison. Share this widely and make some noise.
