Your 2-minute digest of today’s top stories and must-reads.

Hello readers. Scott Morrison is targetting the tech titans on a ‘lawless internet’ and a ‘racist’ video has rattled Michael Daley.

MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA - MARCH 18: Prime Minister Scott Morrison addresses the Australia-Israel Chamber of Commerce on March 18, 2019 in Melbourne, Australia. The Prime Minister has announced an acceleration to the Safer Communities programme, with $55 million in community safety grants, with priority to be given to religious schools, places of religious worship and religious assembly. Grants from $50,000 to $1.5 million will provide for safety enhancements such as CCTV cameras, lighting, fencing, bollards, alarms, security systems and public address systems. The additional funding is in response to the deadly shooting attacks on two mosques in Christchurch on Friday, 15 March which killed 50 people. (Photo by Quinn Rooney/Getty Images)
