@arstechnica sounds like these folks need to have their identity shared with the general public affairs office of fafo.

@arstechnica ""Had the legislation referred to 'a State' rather than 'the State,' there would be no debate about whether sharing was prohibited," the police associations' letter said. "We see no basis to read such a limitation into the legislation based on the word 'the' rather than 'a.'"

"look, if the law were written differently, this would clearly be allowed" is certainly argument you can make
