I don’t see what the fuss is about
The Oz government said that FaecesBook would have to pay to show Oz news, FakeBook declines and kills Oz news _on their site_ instead. FB ain’t carrying Oz news no more, and doesn’t have to pay anything. Oz residents who want news given choice: use FakeBook, get no news, or don’t use FB, get news. Seems simple to me. Oz news sources still get zero cash from FB, are in same position as before, except not getting traffic driven to their sites by FB listings. Oz government stopped FB from listing Oz news without paying. Life goes on.
Note that I have never had, and never will have a FaesesBook account, and am not an Oz resident and simply don’t give a flying drop bear.
