New from me: I've spent the past month interviewing volunteer firefighters about the toll this bushfire season has taken on them, and the resources they need to keep going. https://t.co/0jjwZDMTJ7

I wrote this this morning to spare everyone a lengthy tweet thread. I am so bloody proud of my colleagues. If my work has been useful to you please RT. I've worked full-time as a reporter for seven years and this is my website: https://t.co/uDZ2oRs779

@cameronwilson @buzzfeedoznews Cam I'm so sorry but also DAMN this is an amazing post. Hope you're doing okay <3

[Hannah Ryan @HannahD15]

It’s tough to lose my job during a pandemic, but I’m truly gutted that BuzzFeed won’t be covering Aussie news for an Aussie audience after next week.

[sam langford @_slangers]

@HannahD15 Sending so much love Hannah. I've been looking up to your reporting for so long. Your whole team rules and I hope I get to read all of your fantastic work somewhere else real soon <3

If you want to see one of the (now-fixed) bugs in action, take a look at this video. As @wabzqem says, it's great that this has been fixed, but it also should have been caught and fixed earlier https://t.co/93BTCxDR3Y

Today’s COVIDSafe update fixes a security flaw I reported, which allows an attacker to disable the app for all iPhones in the vicinity. App has to be out of range of attack and manually opened to record contacts again.

Details https://t.co/ay7BZSaRQI

You should still use it.🧵

[sam langford @_slangers]

Finally, some fixes for bugs in the COVIDSafe app! If you're using the app, install the latest update folks

[Jim Mussared @jim_mussared]

For people running #covidsafe: Make sure you install today's update (v1.0.17 for Android). It contains two fixes, addressing two of the long-term tracking issues I raised. There's still a way to go, but, progress!

There's also fixes in the Android app that help the iPhone app.

So sad to hear Buzzfeed Australia's news arm is being closed. The team's reporting on refugees and women's health was (and I hope will continue to be elsewhere) bloody excellent and needed.
