It's that special day that comes but once every five years. Australia's national Census 2016. And so far hasn't it been a disaster."Look we don't like to call it data mining, it's more like data fracking," tweeted by Johannes Jakob on 9 August, and he's right.This podcast was recorded as it was livestreamed on Tuesday night.
