Let's face it, probably also the Russians.
The effectiveness of these groups should be obvious from the referendum, if not the US election. Wealthy people are more than willing to throw shitloads around to spread misinformation and flood people's feeds.
The bill has been passed, but doesn't come into effect until next year.
Adobe Haven't these dickheads been charging Australians more for their products than anyone else for decades?
If you're going to urge the US to target Australia it should be within the rights of every Australian to just torrent your shit if they want.
Trump's strategy is to "flood the zone" (as Steve Bannon puts it) so that all the oxygen for reporting on anything is sucked up. This was also more or less Scott Morrisons strategy when he won, they hired a pair of dweebs from NZ whose job is basically to flood social media with bad memes so that it's all you see. So it wouldn't surprise me if what Dutton is doing is a similar strategy.
Guardian removed their article about not enough water being avalable for nuclear plants. Thoughts?

Agreed that PM is different, they don't weild the same power the US president does. But in terms of time, Robert Menzies was pm for a total of 18 years and John Howard was pm for 12, so you can be for a long time. Politics have just been much less stable in the last 20 years.
It probably depends how much fractional power and money is behind the PM. John Howard was PM for a decade after all.
