Google already ramping up its drops to friendly journalists to try and pressure the government to weaken taxation of big tech, threatening not to build its huge, energy-sucking data centres in the country if its forced to pay its fair share

@ketan “bout time a government - any government, anywhere - called their bluff.

If that happens to be the AU govt growing a spine, huzzah 🎉. And maybe while the government is at it, the fossil fuel and mining cartels can be taken behind the chookshed for a “conversation about taxation” lol 😂
