I am an IT professional, it is my trade and I take it seriously. But does Stephen Conroy take his seriously?
It is insulting to have so many botched attempts at Communications leadership coming from someone who clearly does not understand their portfolio. It is also embarrassing to make world headlines for backwards policy.
So what has he done now?
Communications Minister Stephen Conroy has accidentally released a confidential report containing potentially damaging and embarrassing details about Telstra.
Analysts say the leak could put Telstra on the back foot in negotiations around the upcoming $43 billion National Broadband Network.
And in a further gaffe, the most sensitive information in the 252-page document is highlighted in yellow. This was presumably to make it easier to censor the information but instead has allowed Telstra’s competitors and detractors to skip to the juiciest details.
How can we as citizens, and me as an IT professional, trust such key policies and agendas to this guy?
Extract taken from smh.com.au, you can also read the highlighted report.
