This was expected after seeing the announcing of a Social Media Score being attached to your passport and a blacklist provided by the government to future employers and financial institutes. Australia is very quickly losing its rights and becoming a prison island. Shouldn't have forfeited your guns to the government.

I think it is definitely the start of something bigger, especially looking into 'The Five Eyes' with the five nations - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Eyes I'm wanting to know if because of this, whether or not they will proceed to push these mandates and get other nations on this anti-privacy train.

It can happen without a warrant

As stated In the article, there are three types of warrants:

Data Disruption Warrants
Account Takeover Warrants
Network Activity Warrants

A warrantless surveillance will be deemed as an emergency authorization, where there's probable cause/reasonable grounds to take Immediate action. This has been around for decades.

Yes, I would like to know what they classify as an 'emergency' and the fact that the warrants have a maximum of 90 days, however they can be extended? If they can extend it, how many times will extensions be applicable.

Say for an example, someone from Australia is on this forum and hacks their government, does that now give them granted access to all Australian users being investigated without notice/consent for potential involvement?

Am I being stupid or are these questions valid?
