I would never join the ADF, not just because I use adblock. Joining the Australian military is joining the American military in all it's war crimes.

"Australian Defence Force full-time personnel levels have had their biggest single-year increase in 15 years.
The government attributes the success to targeted career advertising on social media and in online games."
Headline is a bit misleading, should really have had "Advertising in" at the start.
