De-influencing: the practice of encouraging others to divest from consumption of hype and other misinformation, often from influencers. I am going to put de-influencer in my profile.

Four men, including the chief officer of an international livestock carrier, have been charged over their alleged roles in a plot to import more than 525kg of cocaine into WA. WA crime investigators were alerted on November 6 when a member of the public discovered large packages tied to flotation drums about 30km offshore. Later that day, WA Police and AFP officers recovered the bundles off the coast of Lancelin, seizing 525kg of cocaine - equivalent to more than 2.6 million street deals and valued at $170 million. Assistant Commissioner Longhorn said, “This seizure represents a significant disruption to organised crime networks attempting to target Western Australia.” “The successful recovery of these drugs is the result of a complex, multi-agency operation and demonstrates our unwavering commitment to protecting the community from the impact of illicit substances.” Police have charged the vessel’s chief officer, a 46-year-old Croatian national, with attempting to import a commercial quantity of a border-controlled drug. A 52-year-old Perth man and two Sydney men, aged 19 and 36, have also been charged and faced court. Catch the full story tonight on 10 News Perth at 5pm.

Farmers are blocking Jacinta Allan's Transmission Company Victoria (TCV) personnel from entering properties earmarked for compulsory access under the VNI-West project, saying the process is unfair and unjust. Farmers are operating on a roster system so they can continue to protect each other's properties and look after their own farming businesses and their personal well-being.
