Roving Spotlight 19/6/2026 - Internet's broken promise, Wikipedia Collisions, WWI Japan connections
We take a look at how the Internet's promise has been broken - corporate abuse and enshitification, along with spam and scams, and people profiting from falsehood. I also review how I have mixed feelings about Wikipedia, we hear about ethics in criminal networks, and how Japan helped escort an Australian war fleet in WWI.
Roving Spotlight 12/6/2026 - Lies and Distortions from both Labor & Liberal, and advertising
We take a look at some past history of the LNP - where I can in fact find good things to say about them. Then, I look at some of the issues I've had with the Labor Party, before taking a look at whether what Labor has done - not to forgive them - but it is really so much worse than the form the Libs have had in the past?
I also read a viewpoint from Banksy on advertising, and play a discussion I had with Mark about advertising - he comments that we are being shouted at as no generation before us has been.
