        @BernardKeane not only journalists fear metadata as Abbott's govt. so easily reverses onus of proof. No longer innocent till proven guilty!

        @BernardKeane This data retention is the biggest fishing expedition in Oz legal history, function creep will ensure it's used extensively!

        @bernardkeane Nothing to hide except the currently protected "source". They'll have locations, calls, messages, emails, link and crosscheck.

        @BernardKeane All predicated on persons of goodwill running the shop. Sadly, Abbott,Brandis et al prove we are well short of this assurance.

        @BernardKeane This is seriously concerning, isn't it? I'm surprised/shocked that a bigger issue hasn't been made about it by more people.
