longer free.

It was predictable. I was in fact waiting for it to occur and was
wondering how long it would take before we saw commercialism
raise its ugly head and restrictiveness become the rule as the
presiding paradigmatic representation. It assuredly bucks
against the pure phreaker mindset, as was originally
out-pictured in years gone by. In our so-called progressive
world, I am afraid money speaks the loudest and the longest.

I think as time progresses you'll see the bulk of that which
was free in the past turning the commercial route.

Like once upon a time you could walk into the local Post Office
and browse freely (in both senses) through a hard-copy electoral
roll.

What is the situation with them now? Public library??

http://www.aec.gov.au/enrolling_to_vote/about_electoral_roll/how_to_view_electoral_roll.htm

Intrstingly, that page states "The roll is not available for sale in
any format". Maybe the key words are "for sale", as local pollies
get their state roll supplied FOC on CD.

If it's available to view electronically at their offices, I wonder
why they couldn't put it on the web?

They can, but choose not to.

There has been considerable controversy about having the date online
where it can be used to chase up where people currently are etc.


So Rod Speed is off the list then!

I don't understand why, if anyone can walk into an AEC office and get the information anyway.
Because most who are likely to misuse the information wont bother.

And with those like debt collectors who do it much, the AEC can tell them to fuck off.

You can in fact choose to not have your name on the publicly available list.

Because you have to manually transcribe it there.
Online, you could automate it and pull the lot for junk mailing, etc.
