There are quite a few things odd about this article, chief among them, why is it posted on a law firm website? This isn't news, it's practically an opinion piece.

Regardless, Sydney Criminal Lawyers undertakes journalism to publish news articles, much like civil liberties defender EFF or entertainment/advertising company Nine/Fairfax.

About the author, from the article's page:

Paul Gregoire is a Sydney-based journalist and writer. He's the winner of the 2021 NSW Council for Civil Liberties Award For Excellence In Civil Liberties Journalism. Prior to Sydney Criminal Lawyers®, Paul wrote for VICE and was the news editor at Sydney’s City Hub.

It's not practically an opinion piece, it is wholly an opinion piece.
