Why not just have the ISPs provide transcripts of all communication. It is at least as dumb as what Trampballs is proposing and as likely to work in the actual world of IT. For example: Apple can't decrypt users imessages so it doesn't matter how much you hold your breath and go blue asking them to do it for you they actually can not. I suppose it's the thought that counts.

They're pretty loving poo poo at it, but I guess so Doctor Spaceman posted:Labor did better in the 2016 election than expected and their polling has only improved since then. From their perspective there is no reason to change tacks. They shouldn't have been able to lose that election. Unless you're going to swallow the thick ropey narrative peddled by the Australian media, they were the shittest performing govt in 50 years, and Even Crean/Beasley would have steamrolled them.

The general theme being "Look, I live here, there's gently caress all work here, and the public transport is useless, what the gently caress do you expect to happen? Stop punching the poor and focus on graft and corruption" Now if only we could get them to vote for the party that doesn't hold job seekers down while the media punch them in the groin.

So when Labor was helping pass the metadata legislation everyone told them it was useless at combating terrorism since anyone can use Facebook chat. 2 years later they realise this and push for facebook to help decrypt their own poo poo. It isn't going to be a backdoor though, they actually think they can straight up decrypt it like it's a loving enigma machine or something I'm looking forward to Labor supporting the LNP's new policy of stopping global warming by shrinking the sun.

See, this is why people can't take you Global Warmists seriously. You have to strawman your opponents positions so much just to try and prove us wrong. If we want to fight the completely natural warming of the Earth we just have to correct Jupiter's spin.

Australia's next generation stealth fighter jets have been beset with yet more problems, with the US Air Force grounding a fleet of F-35s after the aircraft started starving their pilots of oxygen. The US has ordered an indefinite flight ban at the Luke Air Force Base in Arizona - where Australians are among those training to fly the planes - while it investigates the cause of the potentially fatal problem. The F35 jet program has had its share of troubles. Overpriced, too slow, too visible on radar, billions over budget and years behind schedule, critics are worried we are falling behind our adversaries. There have been five such hypoxia, or oxygen deprivation, incidents since early May. The ban is expected to last at least a week. A US Air Force spokesperson said the incidents were not considered serious and pilots used their training to land safely. Backup oxygen systems kicked in as designed when the problems emerged. "In order to synchronise operations and maintenance efforts toward safe flying operations we have cancelled local F-35A flying," said Brigadier General Brook Leonard, commander of the base's 56th Fighter Wing. "The Air Force takes these physiological incidents seriously, and our focus is on the safety and well-being of our pilots. We are taking the necessary steps to find the root cause of these incidents." A team of pilots, maintainers, medical professionals, and military and industry experts will investigate the issue. Comment was sought from Defence Minister Marise Payne. Proponents of the Lockheed Martin-built planes tout their radar-dodging stealth technology, supersonic speeds, close air-support capabilities, agility and massive array of sensors that give pilots unparalleled information. But this is another setback for the program, which has faced repeated delays, cost overruns and problems, including an engine fire in 2014 that led commanders to ground planes until the problem could be resolved. Other issues have included software bugs, technical glitches and even a faulty ejection system. The aircraft made its debut at a showcase in Australia earlier this year, 15 years after the Howard government first announced Australia would participate in the weapons program. The RAAF's first eight planes are expected to be delivered to Australia in 2018 and enter service in 2020. The remainder are expected to be delivered by 2023 and stay in service until 2070. Under the original plan, the first planes were supposed to be in operation in 2012. The government stands by the JSF purchase and says 2500 Australians are working on the F-35 now and this will grow to 5000 by 2023.

gay picnic defence posted:Australia's next generation stealth fighter jets have been beset with yet more problems, with the US Air Force grounding a fleet of F-35s after the aircraft started starving their pilots of oxygen. Not at all surprised seeing as they used the same oxygen generator as the F-22 which had exactly the same issues and pilots already complained about this as far back as 2012: https://www.usnews.com/news/blogs/dotmil/2012/05/24/f-22s-oxygen-issues-raise-questions-about-f-35. The whole F-35 program is a train wreck and Australia seriously needs to cut its (significant) losses and pull out. In other news, was catching up on my e-mails after being overseas and I got one from AWS advising that they're going to be charging me GST as of July 1st due to the updated legislation: Didn't Amazon along with other big butt companies expressly oppose these GST changes? Obviously they've just said gently caress it and given in. Also as predicted I as an individual am getting owned with more tax because lol those corp cuts gotta be subsidised somehow right?
