Speaker 2 (00:18):
Brought you by Glowbird one hundred thousand dollars giving away
another person in the drawer right up next with the
one in three chance of winning outrageous cash one hundred game.
We've never given away one hundred grad beforewards Life Chase Oil.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
It is all thanks to Mission Possible.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
The final reckoning right now though, is unhealthy if your
partner can track your location. The survey's done forty seven
percent of people. It's actually more than that, it's fifty
eight percent of people in this survey conducted by e
Safety Commission.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
I didn't even know they existed, but they're out there
doing surveys. Good on them.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
They've found out that fifty eight percent of people expect
that you can track your partner whenever you want. You
should be able to expect that in a relationship these days,
which again.
Speaker 4 (00:55):
The expect word is very strong.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
You and I have just spoken, however, that we do
track each our partner's location. They track us, and I
think that changed once we had kids. And it also
means a lot less comms it's just that where are you,
what are you doing? Message that it's deleted for us,
which is really nice. It does start to get it
does start to get manipulative. I think though, when you're
using that information in a way that to hold it
(01:19):
against the person that you're with.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
That's when it starts to.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
I thought you said you're at work, it's quite clear
that you're at the pub like that.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
I think that would be annoying.
Speaker 4 (01:26):
Yeah, I think, yeah, I think that would be annoying.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
And say, oh, I think I left my phone at
the pub.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Yeah, or even yeah, yeah, I think I think checking
up on them, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
I think you're in a bad spot.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
If you need to check up on where your partner
is interesting, I.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Think that's a bad spot. I think that's a bad thing.
Tianna's called what are your thoughts?
Speaker 4 (01:45):
Tiana? Yes, yes, Tiana, you're on the air.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Hi.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
How are you good?
Speaker 3 (01:52):
Good?
Speaker 4 (01:53):
What do you think about this?
Speaker 3 (01:54):
Let's get into it, shall we.
Speaker 5 (01:55):
Well, I'm going to be married for a year, but
I've been with my partner thro the five and never
once have we spoken or even thought about like tracking
each other.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Yeah, would you would you not do it? Why? Why
would you not do it, Tianna.
Speaker 5 (02:10):
I just think that if I'm tracking my partner, there's
no trust, and if there's no trust, then there's not
much solid foundation to work off.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
There what about the situation to this? So this is
why me and my wife started doing it. So I'm
not sure if your husband is good with his phone,
but a lot of the time I just leave my
phone somewhere, or she'd try to call me or text
me and wouldn't know where I am. So it was
great for us that she could just look on this
app and go like, oh, you're at work, great, done,
don't need to try and get onto him.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
Does that appeal at all?
Speaker 6 (02:42):
Not really?
Speaker 5 (02:43):
Like my partner's always on the road, you know, like
quoting his a plumber tradee. So never I don't know,
I've never felt the need to know exactly where he is.
But we do speak about, you know, where are you
working today? Where are you working tomorrow? And I sort
of know it like a gist, you know.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
It's the pinpointing it starts to get yeah, yeah, yeah,
thanks Tianna. Thanks to call my m spinally's pillow. I
know some of the people outside were pretty pumped about this.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
What do you think, Jay, I just.
Speaker 7 (03:13):
Don't ever think that anyone needs to know where I
am except for me.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Nice, I would never share it, Like, I don't even
think I would probably consider someone that asked.
Speaker 7 (03:22):
Me for it.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
So there's certainly this word that people would expect it
of you in a relationship with instant red flags.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Isn't it.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
I'd probably laugh, Yeah, it expected it.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
Expect is a strong word. I need to know where
you are.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
And again, this is the.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Reason that the E Safety Mission's looking into this is
because there is obviously very clear links between tracking someone
and having a sense of increased coercive control over them.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
So it's not it can be nasty, no doubt about.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
They're not you and I either. Woods where Freemen uh
Junior produce your analyst? What do you think about this?
You also have a strong opinion.
Speaker 7 (03:54):
I actually don't mind it, but I think it has
to be done in like a mutually kind of like
respectful capacity. You have to know them for a bit
and you have to trust them, and like it can't
be for the wrong reasons, like I don't want you
tracking me, same as you, Woody, Like I don't want
you tracking me because you want to know, like what
I'm doing at all moments. I want you tracking me
(04:15):
to know, Hey, she's going to be like twenty minutes late.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
You know, I would love to track you a baby?
Can we can we organize that because that'd be good.
It's a good content. Can trust me, you can track me.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
It's fine.
Speaker 7 (04:25):
I've got no I'm going nowhere.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
Weird, we'll find out on Monday.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
Let's go to Let's go to Dana here nothing.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
I've been checking a weekend. I've got a life as well.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
Dana.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
You put that up is like a widget on our
socials is analyst right now?
Speaker 4 (04:40):
We might cross a few lines there. That might cross
a few Dana.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
What are your thoughts on sharing your location with your partner?
Speaker 6 (04:48):
Well, for us, it's really convenient because like me and
my family, a lot of us do uber and awdash.
So will you share with our partners so that if
anything goes wrong then know how to find us real quickly,
and like we have kids and stuff like that, So
for us, it's a safety thing. People know where we are.
We have like a big family one so that everyone
can find each other if anything goes down they need
(05:09):
a rescue.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
I saw it.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
I actually saw a kid the other day get off
the tram and they were they were on a FaceTime
call to their parents and they met that there, but
their mum and dady was waiting for them like one
hundred meters down the road. So I assumed that the
idea was just as soon as you're walking alone in
the dark, your video.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Call me immediately.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
I imagine we were to say that when our girls
grow up, my girl have five or six hair tags
on her at the same
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Time, five or six straw I reckon
