This isn't aimed at individuals. Individuals can be ignored and stonewalled without consequences, as most don't have a high-profile media presence nor funds to mount legal challenges. Nothing changes there.

This is aimed at a (few?) non-profit(s?) who have been publicly exposing the incompetence and suspected corruption/favoritism by the DPC and got decent media attention.
