That's sensible to me.
If you need an anti whistleblowing law, that's a red flag.
I don't agree entirely with animal rights activists, but the cases where criminal charges have been laid to me says this kind of activism does serve society.
And this law sounds so open to abuse that it could effectively silence any whistleblowing in the entire industry. Like it or not, whistleblowing is a necessary function to keep the economy functioning fairly.
