The federal government is proposing to update legislation which will allow police, security and intelligence agencies to have complete access to our online activities, without requiring our knowledge or consent, for up to two years.
This proposed change is a breach of Australian cultural boundaries, not to mention a potential breach of international law. The Australian public's privacy is being violated by a government plan that will be ineffective in stopping the 'bad guys', as encryption and IP proxy techniques are ways of avoiding detection online.
This means that those targeted by this government plan will be unaffected, leaving the Australian public to forgo its right to privacy for nothing.
We, the undersigned, call on the elimination of the proposed changes to National Security Legislation, currently suggested by the Joint Committee on Intelligence & Security.
These changes will do nothing to improve our national security, and will only result in the breach of our right to privacy.
We, the undersigned, specifically oppose the two year data retention plan, the tracking of social media and email sites, as well as forcing honest Australians to turn over their internet passwords.
