It's not actually a bad strategy, ultimately the law is probably going to get slapped down as unworkable and there's pretty good evidence to suggest that they knew it wouldn't work even before they implemented it, which won't make them look good.
Unfortunately the courts move so slowly that none of this has happened yet and the law has now gone into effect because the timer ran out, but in theory they could have done all the work to comply only for the law never to have happened.
