Do you credit Mr Archibald aka Paul Pulta as the sole reason for getting into watches?

[h=2]'YouTube celebrity' forced into secretive hearing[/h]
Recently, a self-described Brisbane "YouTube celebrity" was called to the star chamber because investigators wanted to find out who was behind the leak of a top-secret report about Queensland Rail network problems.

Acting as a middleman, Paul Pluta received the report from his source, passed it on to journalists and posted several videos on his own channel, causing major embarrassment for QR and the State Government.
Mr Pluta was later charged with breaching the CCC Act for allegedly informing a third party that he was due to face the star chamber.
When contacted for comment for this story, Mr Pluta declined to be interviewed, saying his case was still before the courts.
Mr O'Gorman said the Pluta case was an example of coercive hearings being used for trivial matters, and said Queensland whistleblowers had to think "long and hard" about coming forward.
"It'd be different if you were talking about a terrorist incident, but this was talking about problems about Queensland Rail that needed, in the public interest, to be disclosed," Mr O'Gorman said.
