The new frontier of domestic abuse + Australia tracking Chinese Navy Flotilla

It’s the frightening new frontier of coercive control and family violence. Abusers are now weaponising smart devices and even the software in cars to spy, abuse and manipulate victim survivors. In one case, there are allegations that an abuser manipulated an ex-partner’s software in her car, which allegedly allowed him to control where she was going or completely shut down the vehicle.

In this episode of The Briefing, Natarsha Belling is joined by CEO of Full Stop Australia Karen Bevan, to explain what technology-facilitated abuse is and where you can go to get help.

If this discussion raised any issues for you, or you think you may be a victim of technology-facilitated abuse, contact 1800 RESPECT on 1800 737 732.

Headlines: Australia is keeping a close eye on a Chinese Navy flotilla currently in the Philippine Sea, four Sydney men have been charged in connection with an international "satanic" child sex abuse material ring, and more than $150,000 worth of snails have been stolen from a farm north of Paris.
