Anti Encryption Law | Honest Government Ad

Video Transcript:

Hello, I'm from the Australian government. Do you have something to hide? Nah, just kidding. We're not some fascist regime. Ha ha ha, seriously though, do you? Unfortunately, encryption makes it hard for us to spy on you these days. So just to make sure, we're introducing yet another law to expand the surveillance state. Introducing the assistance and access bill. Or arse access. For short, I'm relaxed. Despite how it sounds, we're not trying to access your data through your back door. Where to start after the keys to your front door? Yup, arse access will force tech companies to do our dirty work for us. For example, by making them insert a little secret source in their app. Which lets us access your device once you download the latest update. And if they refuse, we'll find the shit out of them. Arse access. It doesn't break encryption. Only your trust in your favorite apps. To bring you arse access, we've taken the UK's fascist spying law and made it even more fascist. By removing any need for judicial oversight. But don't worry, we promise to only spy on you if reasonable and proportionate. And you know you can trust us. We're the same cunts who docks the welfare recipient for criticizing us. Who are prosecuting a whistleblower for exposing our misconduct. Who throw kids in concentration camps for seeking asylum. And prosecute the journalists who report on them. And who gave half a billion of your tax dollars to a foundation full of our friends. So of course you can counter us to be reasonable and proportionate. And if we're not, well, you'll never hear about it. Because we've also introduced a 10-year jail sentence for any Snowden wannabe who disclosed our abuse of arse access. Arse access. Brought to you by Australia. Where the laws of Dickheads can't trump the laws of math. But they can trample human rights. Which is why to test this shit fuckery. We chose Australia. The weakest of the five eyes alliance. Thanks to our lack of a bill of rights. So international data requests will now be funneled through us. Compromising not just Aussies, but all of you, fuckers too. You're welcome. And we'd love to know what you think of our access. So we've set up a public submission system where for a limited time. You can protest our next step towards a fucked up dystopia. Australian government. Relax. We're not after your dick pics. Just the last shreds of your civil liberties. Authorised by the Department of Home Or Pairs.
