This made me so incensed when I read it. If the Victorian government don't have a response to this diagusting attempt at voter disenfranchisement then it undermines the creeibility of the whole system. There will be no reason to act in good faith, the clear signal to political players and Partys of all colours will be to attempt to deceive agendas and farm votes from those deceptions as much as this case.
In other words this is a potential precedent that should be decapitated in the strongest possible terms. It is worth the political cost to reject these deceitful and disgusting people's plan.
Edit: Its cases like this that confirms my belief that the Social Web, spaces like this, need to be supported and grown. People like this are able to grow because governments are scared to demand change from big tech, and big tech have a financial (and sometimes ideological, 'X' at least) interest in platforming bad faith provocateurs.
