  • To put it into perspective, perhaps we just need to understand how much we export to the United States, Aussie raw materials are exported to many diverse countries, data from the Department of Foreign Affairs states exports of iron ore mostly go to countries like China, Japan, and South Korea, in 2022, approximately 1% of Australia’s total iron ore exports were sent to the United States (general data seems to reflect the same for the 2024 fiscal year). The US has primary sources for these materials that are domestic mines or they are imported from other countries such as Brazil and Canada.

    On the other hand aluminium is slightly different. In 2022, around 10% of Australia’s total aluminium exports were directed towards the United States. Still though, this doesn’t represent an enormous impact on Australian mineral resource exports where these numbers only reflect 0.075% of the Aussie GDP.





  • I’ve been trying out Searx search lately and preferred it over Qwant. From some quick research, I found that Qwant does not track your search history or create personal profiles based on your searches. Seems like good news meaning users can expect a certain level of anonymity while searching online.

    However, and this is why I avoid it, it’s worth noting that Qwant does share some data with Microsoft, particularly regarding ads and search results. This includes sharing your IP address and browser details for fraud detection purposes. Personally, sharing IP information with Microsoft isn’t something I’d want in a search engine, as it raises concerns about how much user data is still being shared despite their claims of anonymization.
