We all know that Brandis has no clue what 'metadata' data means, there's plenty of clips on YT attesting to his ignorance. Turnbull and Brandis are ideological 'enemies' within the same party, both are strong candidates for the current PM's job (who is in the same ideological camp as Brandis). My guess is that Turnbull has convinced him to announce those things won't be included. Turnbull is an "old fashioned" conservative who wants to lead the party back toward the center after it's violent lurch to the "bogan right" at the last election. He's a previous party leader and he has sunk more than one of these proposals in the past from the inside, I'm fairly confident he will do the same again this time around, assuming the announcement by Brandis hasn't already done that.
