An Iranian who tried to go to Australia but was sent to Nauru couldn't stand being there. He set himself on fire, and later died.

He could not get proper medical care in Nauru, so Australia moved him to Brisbane in Australia, but this took a long time because Nauru is 4500 miles away from Brisbane. Who was responsible for forcibly placing him so far away? The Australian state.

Senator Widen will try to cut this back.

I think it is legitimate for the state to install spy software in suspects' computers, with a court order; but these orders must be limited in scope so as not to threaten everyone.
