The website also says:
"Australian research shows that 99% of domestic violence cases now involve some form of technology-facilitated abuse."
Where the "Australian research" is linked to a page where the first Key Finding states:
"Over one quarter (27%) of domestic violence cases involve technology-facilitated abuse of children."

- defrost 3mo agoThe relevant quote* from the linked Australian research is: Technology-facilitated abuse is becoming more and more of a key feature of domestic and family violence. A 2015 survey of 546 domestic and family violence frontline workers found that 98% of respondents had clients who had experienced technology-facilitated abuse. The research then focuses specifically on children, finding that of all the domestic violence cases, 27% involve technology-facilitated abuse of children. Can you expand on what it is that "Doesn't fill [you] with confidence" ? * Page 9: https://www.esafety.gov.au/sites/default/files/2020-12/Children%20and%20technology-facilitated%20abuse%20-%20Summary%20report.pdf https://www.esafety.gov.au/sites/default/files/2020-12/Child...
- defrost 3mo agoAs no one has commented on the problem; 98% of "frontline workers" having direct experience of "Technology-facilitated abuse" (ie. have encountered at least one case of it out of all their cases) is very different to 98% of "all domestic violence cases" involving "Technology-facilitated abuse".
