Homegrown Food Battle Won (for now)

from The Rustic Spirits Podcast · host Regan and Kirsty Perry

We follow-up with the AusAlert story and share a wide variety of experiences from our viewers including people who hadn't used a phone in 5 years getting it, and one scary incident involving a traumatised dog. We also follow up on the escaped AI Agent from last week - it gets worse - it left notes for it's future self!And we talk about the surveillance state that's being created with AI powered cameras and facial recognition systems and ask why they're actively seeking out and destroying rare books.But our top story this week is about how they've been sneaking in new food safety regulations over the last few years and trying to push the requirements down onto the 'little guy' as far as they can - until Tasmania finally caught them in the act. I bet you didn't know it was now illegal to pop up a farm gate stand with a a couple of watermelons on it and an honesty box in most places in Australia now.
