"you are a bug I will route around"

The ever-brilliant Davis Eaves explains why our Access to Information regime is seriously, seriously flawed.

His advice to our government could not be more on the ball:

"I belong to a generation that gets information in .3ms (length of a google search). If you take 80 days to get my request to me (and edit it/censor it), you are a bug I will route around. This isn't just the end of accountability in government, this is the end of the relevancy of government."

Hear, hear.
