The best way to know how fukt you are on a scale from 1 to 10 as an #AUStriches is that when the Government outsources to the private sector, you are 12 fukt.

Because if the Gov do it themselves, in-house, with their people, you can safely assume it’s a jobs-for-mates swindle to line people’s pockets because it will never actually work in reality. You don’t have to take this stuff very seriously.

But when the Gov goes to the fully captured private sector and has them do their bidding, well you know it’s actually going to happen. Worse, it’s going to happen in the way the Gov wanted and they won’t have given a single thought to possible second and third order effects because that’s not how they operate - they want sound bites and headlines and shit which builds their profile.

This TEx shit is going to be a disaster. Now instead of Optus leaking everyone’s drivers license and no-one facing any repercussions, now we just have a gigantic single honeypot with ALL your information in it which no-one will be responsible for when people have their lives ruined by massive identity theft at a scale never seen before.

Like a societal timebomb which will detonate at some random point in the future when the parasites in charge are even more inept than those today, where you become completely depersoned from the whole economy because Bill Shorten wanted to have his name in the paper.
