Privacy Reform in Australia: A Call to Action

A trip to Bunnings, a Medibank or Optus account, a new smart car or vacuum, every facet of our daily lives is now up for grabs. So should privacy continue to be our individual responsibility, or is it time for governments do more?

This event was recorded at the State Library of Victoria on 19 November 2024.
