Re: This is not the first time
Normally, when a person complains about some official department, the government claims "oh no, we couldn't possibly comment, because of privacy concerns". Which we all know is bullshit. But when, for once, a person complains to the press, with name, photograph and allegations about payment, the government actually responds with information about the complaint, then it's "doxing".
FWIW, the illegality of robo-debt was that it didn't include a space for lawyers. Lawyers know that any system which doesn't consist of a decision by a statutorily defined officer, is illegal. Because they've built the law that way. And there must be a space for the insertion of lawyers. Because they've built the law that way. The actual (grossly unfair, bizarrely incorrect) recovery algorithm dated from the previous government, and only became "illegal" when it was automated.
