While the misdeed (not sure it's a crime, since there were no criminal penalties) and civil penalty were noteworthy, this individual does not have enough in-depth coverage about the person themselves, outside the event, to meet

My proclamation is that Hunter's role (as Director then later CEO) became more than just ASIC v GetSwift Ltd and was significant and a major contribution to the public discourse which followed the company GetSwift. His role became the story as evidence by Hunter himself receiving the largest penalty of the three individuals involved in the event, but also the largest penalty ever imposed by the Australian Federal Court. This is further supported by the Australian Securities Exchange changing public company listing rules requiring all directors to be of "good fame and character" as a result of Hunter's actions.
I have added comprehensive coverage from numerous and multiple national media outlets covering Hunter over the course of five years.
In summary, Hunter's involvement in
Wikipedia:BIO1E
and justifies the creation of seperate articles.
Finally as commented separately, I'm a relatively new editor and I've tried to follow other articles in Category:Australian businesspeople and whilst I acknowledge some of the aforementioned linked articles could be flagged, Hunter is more notable than many.

  • Delete As the AfC review who accepted the article, I thought it was borderline and knew an NPP reviewer would provide a secondary check. Given notability concerns, especially
    WP:BLP1E not to mention the socking, I agree it should be deleted. The legal issues and his involvement are covered at ASIC v GetSwift Ltd. S0091 (talk) 20:32, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply
