Australian citizens only:
There is currently a few privacy/free speech related
petitions on the Australian government website:


Stop Visa/Mastercard restricting access to legal content
https://www.aph.gov.au/e-petitions/petition/EN7799

Stop eSafety Karens getting extended powers and reach
https://www.aph.gov.au/e-petitions/petition/EN7872

Stop Killing Games petition (ie game makers must leave a
purchased game in a playable state if they decide not to
support it)
https://www.aph.gov.au/e-petitions/petition/EN7706

Repeal online safety amendment banning under 16s from the
internet (and requiring your id to even use the internet in
theory)  (there is actually quite a few variations of this
same one in other petitions too)
https://www.aph.gov.au/e-petitions/petition/EN7845

request to remove legislation for taxing unrealized gains
Mainly applies to managed investments and superannuation -
(this one is sorta important;  say you buy 1 millionth of a
bitcoin, (or even a stockmarket stock) at 10 times the
market value its pennys on the dollar, but in that second,
the price of bitcoin for a second would be listed on that
exchange as over a million dollars,   unrealized gain tax
means every Australian that owns any bitcoin, would now owe
the Australian tax department tax equivalent to having sold
all their bitcoin for a million each..  which is likely more
than all the money they even own..   so its a pretty stupid tax)
https://www.aph.gov.au/e-petitions/petition/EN7556   and
https://www.aph.gov.au/e-petitions/petition/EN7687

Lift the Nuclear Ban in Australia
(allow Atomic technology power stations, kinda important
too, unless you LIKE power being a luxury)
https://www.aph.gov.au/e-petitions/petition/EN7354

Yea, parliament security is pretty poor generally (which is why we dont fkn want digital id)  but they do scrape by with the bare minimum geo-ip check.  Probably has a sh*t list of known incoming VPN IPs too.

From what I saw most petitions reached the minimum 50 to be raised in parliament, and a few went above and beyond with THOUSANDS of names on it.   Still waiting for an MP with the balls to actually raise the points of order tho.

UK gov petitions seem to have the same issue:
"We dont want an e-karen internet protection law or digital ID"  almost 3 million names on there.

Result: "we will look into your petition" on the petitions page,  meanwhile stahlmer (or should that be Stalin?)  posts on his socials,   "ye we are going to go ahead with the law and digital ID"  as if he saw the petition close, then posted that to stick his middle finger up at UK citizens.
