Reset Tech Australia worked with YouGov in July 2024 to poll over 1500 Australian voters. They were asked a range of questions about digital regulation, in the context of anticipated reforms to the Privacy Act 1988. Australians are significantly anxious about a range of privacy and data protection issues, strongly support the direction of travel with the Privacy Act Review, and would like to see reforms carried within a year. A significant number of undecided voters noted they would consider privacy reforms in weighing up who to vote for in the next election.
