This is absolutely fascinating to me too, that an Australian court order is influencing the behaviour of media in another country - the NYT no less! I can't think of any precedent to this.
I'm Australian too, and I am honestly not sure how I feel about this. There are good arguments on both sides. We're really in uncharted territory.
