The controversial return of so called ISIS brides to Australia raises urgent questions about national security, rehabilitation, and risk. These are women who left with their children to support the Islamic State and are now seeking repatriation but are they deradicalised and safe to reintegrate, or do warning signs such as reports of Islamic State linked groups targeting young gay men and children allegedly expressing violent extremist views suggest deeper dangers? We also examine concerns around the policing of speech in Australia, the introduction of multicultural police units, privacy fears tied to China and diaspora intimidation claims, as well as emerging tech vulnerabilities from robot vacuum hacks to broader IoT security flaws.

The discussion expands to declining standards of public decency, before our Plus+ segment turns to renewed investigations into grooming gang scandals in the United Kingdom, questioning whether authorities were merely negligent or potentially complicit. To finish, we lighten the mood with a look at the latest Chad rankings, online conspiracy chatter, and what fresh telecom hack data may reveal about society.
