The billion-dollar fight over Aussie copyright

from The Daily Aus · host The Daily Aus

Last week, something unusual happened in Canberra. A group of Australia’s best musicians, artists and writers came together outside Parliament House. Not to perform but to rally. They were there to deliver a message to the Albanese Government: don't sell us out to Big Tech. On today's podcast, I'm going to explain what they're actually worried about, why the Government is spending billions courting some of the world's biggest tech companies, and what Australian creatives stand to lose if things go wrong.
