TIL the ANCAP safety rating of a car isn't a global thing.

Anyway, here it means anarcho-capitalist. Libertarianism taken to the extreme. Zero government, just businesses, rich people, and private hired security imposing whatever they want on anyone who can't afford to stop them.

    I'm anti-copyright in general*, and especially in favour of stronger fair use–type laws to allow remixing. But as far as copyright does go, this doesn't actually sound all that egregious to me. The fault lies mostly with the musician that Mumbo Jumbo licensed from, rather than with Warner Chappell themselves. The ideal would probably be that MJ could keep the music up and the licenser would have to pay the entire cost of it to WC. But that's a rather difficult thing to expect.

    * sort of... Under capitalism it's absolutely necessary that artists can protect their works in some form to be able to make a living, and I'm not entirely sure how to square that with the idea that artistic expression should be free.

    the real question I have: is this more than the same rural/city divide

    Could be just that. Take a look at the booth breakdown. Almost every booth inside Albury (the largest city in the electorate) went for the independent. The 2nd largest city, Griffith, is the home to the only other booth that went that way. The rest of the mostly-rural electorate went orange.
