I want to know if @eSafety or LNP politicians gave this shell org - currently lobbying for a social media code of conduct - a grant http://justsociale.org
Cos it’s always interesting when an org no one has ever heard of pops up overnight, with staff no one in the digital rights scene has ever heard of, to lobby on an issue that members of government hold near and dear to their heart. And it’s instantly partnered with eSafety
Sorry, that should be @eSafetyOffice

Members of Australia’s digital rights community were confused to who the front company’s CEO was, because we’d never seen her get involved in any digital rights org or event. And yes, that music is from the soundtrack to The Matrix
Of course, a quick skim of the internet shows Sarah Liberty - the alleged “founder and CEO” of ‘JustSociale’ was the first person in mandatory quarantine in NSW to be fined for breaching a public health order during COVID-19
Allegedly she “was involved in a struggle with a security guard and escaped from her hotel room.”
Also interesting how JustSociale’s board member details are for the most part not fleshed out of the website as well...
Which is fine, because Google archived it before they scrubbed it. Not hard to pull back up
