If the Government issues an order to remove a post that says "Don't Get vaccinated and pray instead" vs "you called our President/King/Autocrat a cnut, so your post should be removed and your ID passed on so you can be prosecuted" are both having the govenrmt intervene, most sane people in democracies would be ok with the former but not the latter.

As an Australian I was NOT ok with the Australian governments esafety commissioner trying their stunt with Twitter. I find it doubly amazing the continued use of the service by any of our politicians , fcuk them. Set up a Mastodon instance and use that ffs.

The Australian Government issued a bunch of take down notices to Twitter and Musk said no

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-04-23/what-can-the-government-do-about-x/103752600

Musk decided to block them in Australian only which didn't satisfy the Australian Government

He took them to court and the court sided with Twitter, (x)

The complexity and contradictions were illustrated by Tim Begbie, the lawyer representing the eSafety Commissioner in court. He said that in other cases X had chosen of its own accord to remove content, but that it resisted the order from the Australian government.

“X says [..] global removal is reasonable when X does it because X wants to do it, but it becomes unreasonable when it is told to do it by the laws of Australia,” Begbie told the court.

There is (or was) a North Korean Restaurant in Phnom Penh, in Cambodia. The staff were apparntly North Korean, so not sure how that worked and I was going to go but never go there back in the day.

The worst dishes (for me) I've had were in Malaysia , o coild nit find sonethbg Ibloeod, i started oit disliking the food in Myamar (before the recent civil war) not did start to find food I liked and the most suprisingly good food was Nepalese, at a little place owned by a Nepalese family. Not a fan of tomato based dishes so...

ASX200 dives as inflation clocks in at 4% – higher than 3.8% consensus (themarketonline.com.au)
 

So 4% huh.. Bullock will look the stooge if she does't raise again surely. I bet Chlamers is on the blower now furiously twlling her what weasel world's to use explain why they must not..

That has traders at Morgan Stanley nervous, who suspect the August RBA meeting could see the national interest rate hiked further – not cut.

Daylesford family beats the morning chills — and perils of pollution — as they hitchhike their way to India (www.abc.net.au)
 

In an age where giving lifts to strangers is mostly advised against, this family sees it as their preferred option to get to India, for environmental and social reasons.

Mr Jones and Ms Ulman do not own a car, have not been overseas in 20 years, and wanted to show their son the world, in the least polluting way possible.

"We've done a lot of travel before on bicycles and hitching and public transport in Australia," Mr Jones said.
