  • Introduction for some context

    The applications before this tribunal have their origin in a social media post insulting Teddy Cook, a transgender man. The post, which among other things refers to Teddy Cook as a woman, has been blocked in Australia as a result of action by the online safety regulator. The person who posted the material and the platform on which it was posted have both challenged the decision of the regulator to issue a removal notice. The broad question to be answered is whether the post meets the statutory definition of cyber-abuse material targeted at an Australian adult. The more focussed question is whether I can be satisfied that the necessary intention to cause serious harm to the subject of the post has been established. Based on the evidence before me, I am not satisfied that it has. Consequently, the decision of the eSafety Commissioner to issue a removal notice is set aside









  • Hey it’s me the fun ruiner here to ruin your fun.

    Nuclear Ghandi was mostly a myth until Civilisation V where it was deliberately programmed in.

    Also the concept of an integer wrapping around below it’s minimum value is still integer overflow, just like wrapping above it’s maximum value. Underflow does exist in the context of floating point numbers, when a calculation produces a result too small to represent in the floating point schema.

    Buffer overflow is putting more elements into an array than can fit in the array, therefore trying to write beyond the end of an array. They’re a super common form of vulnerability exploit, particularly in older programs written in C. Buffer underflow is when something consuming from a buffer consumes faster than it is filled, and so empties the buffer. I didn’t actually know this term before making this comment.
