[AusNOG] Metadata retention... it's now (almost) a thing

[Paul Wallace]

I fear educating them might be detrimental to those wishing fewer elements are mandated as requiring recording and reporting on.

Mr Brandis had said the government wanted telcos to store "web addresses" under the scheme, but this was later contradicted by Communications Minister Malcolm Turnbull who ruled it out."

"Metadata" could be anything. Specifics would be useful before the bill is passed, if that's not asking too much.

Paul - you are asking the wrong forum. Send a request to Sen. Brandis & the Minister for the specifics - they have them, the AusNOG community doesn't yet.

Better still, if everyone sent a request for the specifics, highlighting your own aspect of the suspected specifics that could not be complied with (Skype destination, or email details if you don't run an email server, or any of the other things that has been griped about on this list).......
