With the letter they send, you let them know you want a hard copy and they will send you one to fill in. That's what I will be doing.

They said that they are still going to log your name/addr against the paperwork if you go this route, so its not changing the "privacy" part.
I am concerned re them doing this in the first place ( for privacy reasons ), but my secondary concern is how ill thought out the whole process appears to be.
It may work for people who are happy to follow the process as laid out, but for those who want to create mischief in the background, it sounds like a horribly easy system to hack.
Also, what happens to people who dont have letter boxes???
Its going to cost more to deal ( individually ) with the 20% of "troublemakers" than to just do it as per before.
Also, based on a declared reason is that the ABS can swap data with other Govt departments, it makes it even more of a hackable target,
so whats the long term data protection plans?????.

How many large computer systems has the Govt ever implemented, that actually work first time, and are secure for years afterwards,
which is what this will need to do,
