Going to http redirects to httpS. Shouldn't this be the other way around to make a point :)
... just making a joke - probably don't want to change this.
... maybe :)
Right now everyone's conflicting over the tail of the list, which is a bit of a merge headache.
The problem with basing an argument on stock prices is the price could be moving for other reasons. There has been in the last few weeks a general downturn in the stock market and in particular tech stocks. Also if the price rebounds and reaches a new high then that makes the argument invalid.
I think that we should give a more detailed list of concerns with the bill. Currently the concerns are quite scatter-brain, ranging from political concerns to practical ones (with the evidence being things like stock prices or twitter threads). And most importantly, there isn't a list of primary concerns (which might have an impact).
If you like, I can write up a draft which contains most of the primary concerns (I've read through the whole bill several times and think that I can put most of the issues into words). Quite a lot of the more extreme worrying is coming from people who haven't read the entire bill, and for instance incorrectly claim that you can go to gaol for non-compliance with a TCN. We should provide some preliminary information about what the bill says for the tl;dr crowd.
I'm currently (as I'm sure most people are) contacting lawyers to ask for their understanding of the changes and what practical differences are there (given common law precedent) which us lay-people might be missing.
(Personally I think we should also petition government for an Australian Bill of Rights to be enshrined in the Constitution, but that's something we'll need to work on separately and will likely take many years to get close to doing. There was a research paper in 1999 discussing this problem, but obviously we're no closer than we were before.)
As suggested by Asher on Twitter, headlining the number of signatures in the page might be nice.
I'm not an Australian citizen, and so don't have a dog in the fight, but was made aware of the site by a colleague.
I read the first paragraph and I'm already inclined to disagree with you. From what I understand, the bill is a bad thing for sure, but the opening paragraph leans on:
It all seems very childish.
It would be great to have some form of banner, corner piece or modal that we could embed into our own web projects, blogs, etc. to promote alp.fail to other techies or even for the general public :)
I think a simple form at the bottom of the page that would allow the general public who do not have github accounts to add their names of support to this letter would make the impact of this site even more powerful.
Maybe OAuth could be used to ensure a bit more credibility for each signee.
