However, the recent proposal by the Labor government to introduce misinformation laws has some people a little concerned. I have to say right at the outset that I do understand that concern. On a side note, I do find it interesting that it’s Advance Australia that have announced their opposition to any misinformation laws. The big problem with misinformation laws is quite simple: Who decides what’s misinformation? When it comes to misinformation laws we also have the problem of things which are factually correct but suggest something other than actual events.
