Last night, the Australian government passed legislation that in theory allows our intelligence agency to hold suspects without charges for eight hours. In practice, however, there are loopholes in the legislation that allow suspects to be held indefinitely. And the worst thing is that the legislation doesn't even have so much as a cool acronym to soften the blow.
