We'll probably never know how this plays out, unless one of the major global brands pulls out of the Australian market. Tech companies doing development in Aust will put in independent code reviews by an offshore team to protect against onshore employees, or will quietly close Australian development shops over years. Some tech companies will move overseas - gradually, over months and years. Net result - lower demand for Australian IT staff, lower export figures in the DFAT stats over years. Many 'component manufacturers or suppliers' will blithely carry on, unaware this might apply to them at all until they receive a notice A massive data breach in 3 years time may not be traced back to a system change caused as a result of a notice, or if an investigation does uncover the root cause, is likely to be quietly hushed up. It'll take a massive ASIC-website-blocking-like event own-goal to generate demand for popcorn. That or a majority of politicians starting to listen to experts rather than agencies and repealing it, and there's precious few Andrew Wilkies around at the moment so that's even less likely.
