A commuter on a peak-hour Melbourne train says she was airdropped campaign material for Fraser Anning's Conservative National Party.

"It just felt like, is someone watching me? And do they know which device of the many in the carriage is mine, or are they just sending this to everyone they can?"ABC's Hidden Campaign — a project tracking political messaging in the election campaignShe said she turned on bluetooth so she could sync with other personal devices like her fitbit, and though she knew she could restrict the settings, she hadn't thought to do so.

"I just don't know it's going to work for that reason. If people feel they've had their privacy intruded [on] by that level of technology. "I would not touch this with a 10-foot barge pole. People would think you're being sneaky, you're being underhanded, they're all the things and attributes you don't want to have attached to your brand."

Airdrop is different to Bluetooth and can be restricted to contacts only or turned off altogether. I've set mine to contacts only & my Bluetooth works fine. Worth doing to avoid rubbish like that being sent to you.

Photographer hurt in scuffle at Fraser Anning press conferenceA 19-year-old has been detained by police after a fight broke out following a press conference with the far-right senator in Cronulla.
