My wife filled out the census last Tuesday, and had saved her part in time for the big meltdown. I believe it was 50 questions that she had to answer.
I did my part today, and because I was not home on the night in question, I only had to answer 10, and most of that was pre-filled from Sue's answers.
I reckon the most invasive question they asked me was my name. They already have that, courtesy of Border Force, Immigration, Australian Taxation Office, and any other Federal Government body I have had to interact with recently. And I'm certain that ABS have a flag on me anyway. More than twice, I have told them what I think of them, in very specific terms.
As far as I know, on this occasion I (will have in the future) wasted their time more than the reverse!
