[AusNOG] Dutton decryption bill

[Paul Wilkins]

*They're taking feedback/submissions/comments for 4 weeks only - is anyone
planning to submit some comment?*

It'd be sad if the government only saw response from a few corporates
representing their vested interests. Representative democracy only works on
a put up or shut up basis. Anyone with an interest in the evolution of our
industry should consider making a submission, or at least expressing by
proxy through a joint submission.

Kind regards

Paul Wilkins
