Bert Hubert was previously on HN. It would be nice if he could comment on the current legislation and whether his resignation made a difference.

    Hello! Well it made some difference, the law was toned down a bit, and it all caused a lot of noise. Also, the government has now sent out various legally binding letters on how they will not use the law. I suspect that will have reduced the enthusiasm for doing more stunts like this. Also, the law still isn't law and is currently languishing in the upper house of our parliament. So still an ongoing story!
