I don't think the rest of the tech world 'cares' that much about the government actions here due to relatively small market. The cynic in me thinks that they can still employ/host stuff here because more barriers have been put up for potential new Facebook sites.
Both major parties lost primary votes in NSW election last week despite winning. Whats to say it won't happen nationally? Despite the system allowing people to make sincere votes, the mainstream media are not talking about the policies of non major parties. So, it's up to us, 'tech workers' to inform others of alternative choices and let people know to not give a primary vote to the major parties.
There's at least one tech-oriented party that has been around since 2008, this is their policies platform https://pirateparty.org.au/wiki/Platform https://pirateparty.org.au/wiki/Platform
Did you know a primary vote means money for that party? $2.75642 to be exact. Even if your vote did not lead your primary party to win, they would still get some money out of it.
