Take Action against this bill! Petition to Sign from Senator Alex Antic
Say NO to the Communications Legislation Amendment (Combatting Misinformation and Disinformation) Bill, a Bill I call the “Ministry of Truth”
The Labor government wants to penalise so-called mis and dis information with fines of up to $550,000 for individuals.
This is despite the fact that much of what they called mis and dis information through Covid has been proven to be completely true, as recent documents accessed through a Freedom of Information request from my office revealed.
Furthermore, the government wants to penalise content that causes “serious harm.” Of course, what that means is not defined, so it could mean anything.
The term “Orwellian” may get overused, but it applies to this Bill. The government is essentially seeking to establish its own Ministry of Truth.
Sign this petition to send a message that you do not want this egregious attack on freedom of speech to go ahead.
Thank you for your support.
