Making philosphical arguments about censorship, technical feasibility etc will never resonate with politicians in this political environment. The only course of action is to focus on jobs. This problem will only worsen unless global tech come together. Industry needs to attach a clear and measurable cost to governments following this type of legislative actions. The cost is the loss of jobs and employment prospects for Australian IT workers in the global tech community. It's not fair on the individual but unless we focus on the bigger picture this is only going to get worse. Australian politicians are now operating without any cost being imposed by global tech community and that needs to change asap to step the tide. The Austrian voters need to also see the type and quality of products and services they receive from these company's impacted and degraded to reflect compliance with these laws - the impact needs to be felt by the end users in these country's. It's the only way to motivate change among the voters and defend internet freedom from further attempts to control it.

- Ceph62 8y agoSociety right now is toxic. If we had hosptials for entire countries half of them would be in the emergency room. The only energy that exists right now is type of energy that exeracerbates divisions between gender, race, religions and classes. This legislation is just another in a long line of legislative actions that have been taken over the past 20 years in response to horrific events that attempt to disguise the root cause of these episodes as something that can be addressed by imposing greater restrictions on individual freedom and liberty.
