I believe that shame goes to Malcolm Turnbull (as Minister for Communications in Abbott Gov).

A Co-worker of mine actually sent a lengthy email to him explaining the limitations and all he got back in reply was that he disagreed.

Yeah, Turnbull. Who you’d have hoped would have known better having previously been CEO of one of the country’s largest ISPs. I seem to recall a video where Mark Pesce publicly called him out on how short sighted his decision was and Turnbull just scoffed.
