Twitter link to video

TL;DR - Pilot program in Victoria where you can receive a call randomly, if you get the call you have to answer by sending a selfie through an app. The app will geo-track the person's location giving health officials proof the person is who and where they say they are.

If the person doesn't respond within 5 minutes, "health officers will come knocking".

What in the screaming, bleeding frick!?!

Then the reporter chick reporting it for local news in the linked video just fooled a lot of people.

I'm not sure that's quite "peak" yet. Peak would be a collar that you're unable to remove that administers a shock if you stray from your permitted location and feeds realtime a/v of you and your surroundings to big brother.

future software updates include shocks for saying or thinking the "wrong" things, eating more than you're permitted to, watching/listening to contraband programming, etc.

School boards have officially convinced the feds to classify us parents as domestic terrorists who will be dealt with by the FBI if we say something ugly that scares a local politician.

These calls will be here soon as well....

This supposed to replace the “hotel quarantine” for incoming travelers according to the comments in the Twitter thread.

I’ve heaps of Aussie friends. They all agree in saying that the Australian government has fricked this up so bad, that they’re trying to change the tide and pin it on the population.

A good friends father was given a few months to live and it’s been incredibly difficult for him to find a flight to even get back to Australia.

Not even close to the peak. Authoritarianism has no limits. It merely becomes exponentially despotic until the people revolt.

This is why you do not allow non land owners to vote.

They would kill this immediately if no one in the country ever answered. Program would go broke. Make them play by their own rules.
