True... I guess I'm not too knowledgeable about the situation in Australia. How would the US approach them and what legal avenues for resistance exist?

They're not a fascist government but they also don't seem to have the same free speech protections the US does. Not that that has helped us much,

    We can't spy on our citizens, we'll just ask our buddies to do it for us.

    Spying is a bit different from being compelled to share data though. Probably everyone is vulnerable to secret surveillance, I'm not sure how to mitigate against that. But the information from such efforts will be more limited.
