As a Kiwi I've frequently interacted with Australians and must've taken close to a dozen trips across the ditch. I've tended to view Australians as being somewhat similar which makes reading headlines like this rather jarring. What have I been missing here?

Very few people know about most of these laws. I’m actually really surprised to see this from a mainstream news source. In general, the Government and the media increasingly hand in hand to control the narratives, keep people distracted from things they don’t want them to know about, and focused on what they want them focused on.
I do get it, people have lives, they’re busy, it’s “out of sight, out of mind”. None of this is in the news. But it’s really quite distressing to see the manipulation working so well and society unknowingly being taken the direction it is.
