    It would be funny if you had to give them your name and email address to redeem.

    Have you checked it for bugs?

    • It is probably made from water soluble material to save a buck.

  • Good old queensland government… one of the most corrupt in the world

    • Good ol palishay

      One of the most corrupt in the world? Are you serious?

      You may want to take a look at some governments in Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe and South America before coming to that conclusion.

        One of the most corrupt in 1st world?

      • They've tried to bury me on more than one occasion! But I guess that's what happens when you find out they killed a kid and are still trying to cover it up

          Hundreds of protestors demonstrating against enormous inflation and rising prices of flour and toilet paper have been killed by the Maduro government in recent months.

          Hundreds. This year.

          This was a wealthy country 10 years ago. Millions of Venezuelans are in disbelief that this is happening in their country.

          Or in Africa (take your pick of country), where most crimes can be covered up with bribes.

          Or in China, where 800k - 2million Uyghur refugees are held in concentration camps. Today.

          https://edition-m.cnn.com/2019/01/18/asia/uyghur-china-deten…

          Or in Eastern Europe, Bulgaria, where a government minister just resigned because he was spending UN aid money on Ferraris and boats for himself.

          https://www.euronews.com/2019/05/14/bulgarian-agriculture-mi…

          Or in Malaysia, where the former PM embezzled $700m USD of aid money for himself.

          So yes, the Queensland government trying to "bury you" doesn't really compare to other atrocities and corruption that are happening right now in other areas of the world.

          Not saying we should accept the corruption that happens in our governments. We should stamp it out as soon as we see it.

          But declaring completely, utterly false statements like any government in Australia is "the most corrupt in the world" because someone got a blowjob to approve a block of flats is so out of touch with atrocities and corruption in the rest of the world, it is laughable.

          • @b2dz: Collusion between QPS, QH, CCC… scares the shit out me. You are right it doesn't compare in sheer numbers to other governments in the world but this is my life… I can only fight for myself

    Webcam cover? So they're handing out pieces of electrical tape?

      No, just Post-it notes.

      supplier cost for 9999pcs 'webcam cover' = aud 50k

    • It was a little adhesive slide thing.

  • +1

    never seen concrete evidence for the need to cover up webcams

    • +1

      If anyone is watching mine they'd be disgusted! Probably the same reason the government is asking me to keep it covered
