Kate Langbroek FURIOUS over marriage equality text

Radio star Kate Langbroek is not happy about receiving a text message promoting same-sex marriage. 

The KIIS FM star was one of the many Australians who received an SMS message from YesEquality on Saturday, reminding her that her postal form had arrived.

Taking to Instagram, she wrote: ‘Spammed. Is the ‘yes’ campaign trying to put people off?’

Kate added the hashtag ‘delete my number.’

The full text read: ‘The Marriage Equality Survey forms have arrived! Help make history and vote YES for a fairer Australia.’

The messages, which are believed to have been sent randomly, have been described by critics as ‘harassment’ and ‘unsolicited.’

Advocates for the ‘Yes’ campaign in November’s postal survey for same-sex marriage equality have expressed similar complaints about the ‘vote no’ campaign.

These complaints were mostly in response to a skywriting message that was displayed over the Sydney Harbour Bridge this week, which read ‘Vote No.’

Referencing the skywriting, one of Kate’s fans replied to her post: ‘Yeah I don’t like being spammed on my phone or in the sky either.’

Another wrote: ‘I’m not too fussed. Rather it be a text about marriage equality than a phone call about my electricity provider.’

Payback? Similar complaints were made by the 'yes' campaign in response to a skywriting message that was displayed over the Sydney Harbour Bridge this week, which read 'Vote No'

Several other fans rushed to support Kate, with one stating: ‘I’m a yes voter but I wasn’t happy about receiving this text #privacyissue.’

‘That’s a huge invasion of privacy,’ agreed another follower.

Others were less fussed about receiving the lone message: ‘People who are ‘put off’ by a text message don’t deserve a vote on something as important as this.’

‘The texts went out to random, computer-generated numbers so no breaches of privacy or illegal activity going on,’ another follower concurred.
