Labor claimed information could be submitted 'completely anonymously'.
This could not be more wrong.
Just by opening the website, Tasmanians are sending their data to Labor Party Headquarters.
This happens completely without asking for consent, with that data capable of being used to identify individuals.
Further analysis shows the website automatically captures IP addresses, device details and even the screen size of those visiting the site.
All without asking for consent.
Why would the Labor Party need to know how big someone's phone screen is to operate this site?
Why would they need to know their internet provider, their location or the technical details of the device they're using?
Each one of these digital fingerprints helps them identify users, potentially opening them up to an influx of unsolicited emails, texts and robocalls.
Today, Josh Willie needs to remove the website or commit to this non-consensual data harvesting to never be stored on Labor Party systems, or used for political campaigning.
