Smart Meters are a financial coup for Big Energy. This is why we are witnessing - and now catching on film - criminal acts of vandalism, breaking & entering and trespass by energy firms trying to install their next-generation 'cash machines' in the homes of customers. When companies are prepared to treat the properties of their customers with this much contempt, the extent to which sensitive personal data will be cared for is in little doubt.
A one year study in Toronto, by Toronto Hydro, showed that 80% of people's bills INCREASE after Smart Meters are installed. "Dozens and dozens of customers...are reporting some huge billing spikes, in one case more than 1,000 percent" reported CTV's Consumer Affairs Reporter, Lynda Steele.
Big Energy firms are publicly-listed, for-profit enterprises answerable to their shareholders. If you are left with any uncertainty about whose agenda Smart Meters are designed to serve, we encourage you to watch Josh del Sol's critical investigation of the Smart Metering and Smart Grid phenomenon, Take Back Your Power.

STUPID METERS
Since I pit up a no trespass sign and even one specific for meter installers no one has come onto my property to install one .
They sent me a letter saying please take your sign down blah blah ....hahahha

and just now looking at this web site it looks like they have given up here in Victoria
quote.....
With the commencement of the New Year, the Victorian Government’s mandate for power distributors to forcibly and ruthlessly install smart meters has concluded.
Correspondence from the Office of the Minister for Energy and Resources, Minister Kotsiras, has acknowledged that two electrical metering systems in Victoria will remain – thus divulging that smart meters are in fact NOT compulsory.

Well the guy says he didn't know she kicked the door in, but since he didn't open the door and sat and waited to video record her, how else did he think she got in?
A little white lie, maybe?

Well, they would have to use wire cutters to get to the meter, the can read it but then cannot get to it.........besides, they only have my permission to read it in my REAL PRIVATE PROPERY......MY LAND PATENT IS MY GUARDIAN......remember that I already kicked out a city employee that came in a little green truck.

You are on their roll for reading meters if you have one. Your patent is exempt for on the grid usage. You exempted yourself by using on grid utilities.

yes I think signing up for utilities creates a kind of "easement" situation. Not sure how you get around that other than to disconnect.

Well in OZ it means the only reason they can come onto your property is to read the meter and NOTHING else .
