You wouldn't believe how many parcels and letters get delayed or even lost every year because some idiot at some international post office sends them to Straya instead of Austria.
Anyway, these disgraceful metadata laws they are trying to pass have zero to do with protecting us poor people from terrorism, and more for making sure that Uncle Rupert's media conglomerate (through Pay TV here in Australia) thrives. He doesn't want us downloading movies/TV shows and circumventing his hilariously overpriced and garbage Foxtel Pay TV.
