Fraudulent Reporting: My letter to the current prime minister of Australia Anthony Albanese in July 2023, pleads with him not to grant the Australian Communications Media Authority (Open letter to Prime Minister (Recovered) with the extra
powers the government wants to provide this government funded organisation. I was able to show in that letter after viewing this website absentjustice.com it would be a grave mistake to award ACMA these extra powers. The government wanted to give these public extra powers with the aim to prevent deceptive news reporting and the spread of false information, as well as misleading journalism practices.

 

A criminal scheme devised by Telstra to minimize their losses was uncovered by the Senate in June 1997, more than two years after most of the arbitrations were concluded.

If the hackers that telephoned Graham Schorer, COT spokesperson, in April 1994, were Julian Assange and his friends, then they provided a very important link for the COT cases, but we did not know this during our arbitrations. No one in government, including two Attorney Generals, denied these three hackers were Julian Assange and his mates. My two letters to those Attorney Generals in 2010 and 2011, detailing what the hackers stated concerning Telstra’s unlawful conduct, brought no response at all, despite attaching irrefutable evidence (see Open Letter File No/12 and File No/13showing the COT cases’ arbitration-related documents faxed to the arbitrator and our arbitration advisors were regularly screened by Telstra and, in my own case, 43 faxes that Telstra charged me for never arrived at the intended destination.

The electronic surveillance (Open Letter File No/12 and File No/13is what the hackers (see below) discussed with Graham Schorer COT spokesperson when they contacted him very early in our arbitration process.

If it was Julian Assange who contacted Graham Schorer, COT spokesperson (See Hacking – Julian Assange File No/3)how did he know during the COT v Telstra government-endorsed arbitration where the Australian Federal Police were carrying out their own investigations as the arbitrator had been doing concerning Telstra's unauthorised interception of the COT Cases telecommunications service lines for the first twelve months of those arbitrations that the COT Cases were under electronic surveillance?

What had the hackers seen to have been able to make those statements to Mr Schorer?


 

He thought it was his duty to expose corruption during a government-endorsed arbitration

A young man (a boy) with a conscience: Hackers for Justice

Graham Schorer prepared a statutory declaration on 7 July 2011 to provide to the Victorian Attorney-General the Hon Robert Clark. This statutory declaration discusses the hackers who phoned Graham to warn him. The hackers discovered Telstra and others associated with our arbitrations were acting unlawfully towards the COT group. Graham’s statutory declaration includes the following statements:

After I signed the arbitration agreement on 21st April 1994 I received a phone call after business hours when I was working back late in the office. This call was to my unpublished direct number.

The young man on the other end asked for me by name. When I had confirmed I was the named person, he stated that he and his two friends had gained internal access to Telstra’s records, internal emails, memos, faxes, etc. He stated that he did not like what they had uncovered. He suggested that I should talk to Frank Blount directly. He offered to give me his direct lines in the his Melbourne and Sydney offices

The caller tried to stress that it was Telstra’s conduct towards me and the other COT members that they were trying to bring to our attention.

I queried whether he knew that Telstra had a Protective Services department, whose task was to maintain the security of the network. They laughed, and said that yes they did, as they were watching them (Telstra) looking for them (the hackers). …

After this call, I spoke to Alan Smith about the matter. We agreed that while the offer was tempting we decided we should only obtain our arbitration documents through the designated process agreed to before we signed the agreement.” (See Hacking – Julian Assange File No/3)

On the covering page of a joint 10-page letter dated 11 July 2011 to the Hon Robert McClelland, federal attorney-general and the Hon Robert Clark, Victorian attorney-general, I note:

In 1994 three young computer hackers telephoned Graham Schorer, the official Spokesperson for the Casualties of Telstra (COT) in relation to their Telstra arbitrations.

  • Was Jullian Assange one of these hackers?

  • The hackers believed they had found evidence that Telstra was acting illegally. 

  • In other words, we were fools not to have accepted this arbitration file when it was offered to us by the hackers who conveyed to Graham Schorer a sense of the enormity of the deception and misconduct undertaken by Telstra against the COT Cases.” (AS-CAV Exhibit 790 to 818 Exhibit 817)

I also wrote to Hon. Robert Clark on 20 June 2012 to remind him that his office was already in receipt of the 7 July 2011 statutory declaration from Graham Schorer. I also approached other government authorities and provided the Scandrett & Associates report (see Open Letter File No/12 and File No/13), which leaves no doubt that the hackers were absolutely correct concerning this electronic surveillance.

If the hackers included Julian Assange, then he carried out a duty to expose what he thought was a crime. Major law enforcement agencies and the media have been asking the Australian public to disclose incidents which they believe are crimes,  because doing so is in the public interest. When I exposed similar crimes to the Australian Federal Police – Australian Federal Police Investigation File No/1 – I was penalised for it and Telstra carried out its threats. 

Sadly for Julian Assange, his family and freedom of speech (which the world is crying out for), he has paid a far higher price (and still is) than I have paid for assisting the Australian Federal Police during their investigation into Telstra’s corrupt practices while in litigation with Australian citizens.

Why has six government agencies and the public servants all ignored my evidence which is now on absentjustice.com which proves my claims are valid?

Absent Justice - Australia

Australia's government public servant advisors need to answer who was responsible for the ongoing telecommunications telephone problems that destroyed so many small business operators' lives between the 1980s to the Australian National Broadband rollout, which commenced in 2014. Who were the public servants who covered up the evidence showing Telstra and AUSTEL (now ACMA) were misleading and deceiving the people of Australia concerning the actual state of Telstra's network? Like in Australia 2023, almost thirty years later, thousands upon thousands of lives have been ruined in the robodebt scheme https://shorturl.at/eowMOSenior public servants have been concealing their knowledge of the unlawfulness of this robodebt scheme from the government since 2021. 

 

It was essential to raise the public servant (Bad Bureaucrats) newspaper article and robodebt scheme https://shorturl.at/eowMO senior bureaucrat matters because they happened years apart, being reported on 22 December 2008 and again in 2023. That's fifteen years apart, and nothing has changed in Australia's public service. The same public service that was prepared to hide from the Australian public in the late 1980s up to 2015, the true actual state of Telstra's ailing network that destroyed my business and hundreds and possibly thousands of small businesses like mine, as my COT story shows.  

 

It became obvious many problems experienced by the COT cases originated from either negligence or deliberate malfeasant on the part of a number of government agencies. Therefore, we have used page 3 of the Australian Herald Sun newspaper dated 22 December 2008, written under the heading Bad bureaucrats as proof that government public servants need to be held accountable for their wrongdoings.

Hundreds of federal public servants were sacked, demoted or fined in the past year for serious misconduct. Investigations into more than 1000 bureaucrats uncovered bad behaviour such as theft, identity fraud, prying into file, leaking secrets. About 50 were found to have made improper use of inside information or their power and authority for the benefit of themselves, family and friends“

Please note: I do not always agree with the topics raised by Bruce Dowling on the Kangaroo Court of Australia. However, he has chosen his media coverage because he tells the story how he sees it and not how the government and other media outlets report on the same topic. We need freedom of speech in Australia, but sadly we are gradually losing that freedom with new laws being touted daily.

Read Alan’s new book
‘Absent Justice’

 

My decision to write this book stems from the intricate and multifaceted nature of our narrative, along with the extensive range of exhibits that necessitated meticulous organization and replication. This deliberate choice allows readers to grasp the myriad of transgressions committed against the COT Cases by various parties, including public officials and regulatory agencies. Through this storytelling approach, I aim to vividly illustrate the pervasive criminality that thrived within the framework of government-sanctioned arbitrations under the International Arbitration Act.

Until the late 1990s, the Australian government owned and operated the nation’s telephone network through the communications carrier Telecom, which has since transitioned to private ownership and is now recognised as Telstra. During this era, Telecom maintained a stranglehold over the communications sector, allowing the network to deteriorate significantly, leading to a cascade of service failures. Instead of confronting the pressing issues of our severely deficient telephone services as part of the government-endorsed arbitration process—an uneven and ultimately futile battle for justice—these critical problems were left unaddressed. As a result, countless claimants found themselves compelled to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars pursuing their cases against this government-owned entity, only to be met with resistance and neglect.

“I am writing in reference to your article in last Friday’s Herald-Sun (2nd April 1993) about phone difficulties experienced by businesses.

I wish to confirm that I have had problems trying to contact Cape Bridgewater Holiday Camp over the past 2 years.

I also experienced problems while trying to organise our family camp for September this year. On numerous occasions I have rung from both this business number 053 424 675 and also my home number and received no response – a dead line.

I rang around the end of February (1993) and twice was subjected to a piercing noise similar to a fax. I reported this incident to Telstra who got the same noise when testing.”
