Australia has decided... We are a ’nation of courage and of kindness’ (Penny Wong)

Pope Francis’ humility, compassion and moral courage and clarity stood in stark contrast. A leader among leaders. Rest in eternal peace 🕊️

Let’s go @gwsgiants.bsky.social !! (Less stressful next time please) #BigBigSound #NeverSurrender

‘Next time steal a baby crocodile and see how you go’. Signed The Australian Prime Minister www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Australia proudly supports Ukraine 🇦🇺🇺🇦

Spineless quisling 👇 Pathetic reporting and bending the knee to fascism from @axios.com

🇺🇦

Grab a spine @cnn.com The only way to report this is to call it what it is. It’s not even adequate to call it a conflict of interest any more. It’s blatant corruption. It’s obvious Musk, an unelected official, is there to enrich himself and you’re incapable of reporting accurately on it.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

Silence is complicity.

In an era where agility and accuracy are crucial for competitive differentiation, AI-driven evolution is not just enhancing marketing measurement—it’s reshaping how success is defined and achieved in the digital age. www.exchange4media.com/digital-news...

Banning TikTok is hugely advantageous to both Google and Meta. They've both already built competitors, YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels. And while Congress and the Supreme Court cite data privacy and China wrt TikTok, Meta gave U.S. data to China before TikTok even existed

Seems relevant right now. “Techno Feudalism” by @yanisvaroufakis.bsky.social

Hard to overstate just how much of the tech industry’s horrifically dystopian present grew right out of its transparently misogynistic past

For those asking, yes, I would like to start a MeidasTouch Network in the UK and Australia next in Q1 of 2025 in addition to Canada.

An absolutely devastating loss. Lisa was one of Australia’s absolute best marketing leaders. Smart, vibrant, deeply respected… a force for all things good. Deepest thoughts with her family and friends at this difficult time. www.theage.com.au/national/vic...

Only beneficiaries of misinformation would block efforts to curtail its amplification via scale apparatuses like social media. Deliberately injecting the notion of the protection of ‘free speech’ is designed to legitimise broadcasting mis/disinformation. Free speech =/= freedom of amplification.

"If you need more evidence of how silly this whole thing is, note…that the efficiency department is being overseen by two people." cnn.it/40KlyXq

Australia set to legislate a ‘Digital Duty of Care’. The duty of care will put the onus on industry to prevent online harms at a systemic level, instead of individuals having to ‘enter at their own risk’. www.innovationaus.com/platform-gia...

A takeover announcement we can all get behind and a spoonful of karma to brighten up your day. The Onion buys Alex Jones’s Infowars with backing from Sandy Hook families. I love this for him. theguardian.com/media/2024/n...

When we overlook & tolerate greater levels of harm it becomes a shared cultural habit. Short term, denial helps us cope. Long term, we collectively come undone. The danger is desensitization: we need urgent collective action not passive acceptance. www.scientificamerican.com/article/weve...

One of the smartest post-election takes is offered by @jenrubin.bsky.social. "The solution lies largely in fostering new forms of media to counteract the gusher of right-wing disinformation that fills the brains and shapes the attitudes of many Americans." www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Super efficient

Is this a joke? Musk to lead the Department of Government Efficiency? As in, #DOGE, like the internet meme and a cryptocurrency he has long promoted. This is the dumbest possible timeline. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024...
