Elsewhere, the Crowdstrike outage bricked over 8.5 million computers worldwide affecting services like banks. Millions of people couldn't access their own money thanks to many banks' insistence on a digital only service. This outage has many questioning whether a digital only economy is the right decision.
Western Australian renters will be celebrating after new laws were passed allowing them more freedom to make small changes to their homes and keep pets all with the approval of their landlords.
