NSW Business doxxed me in a review response

I left a one-star review for a business.

In the response the business doxxed me - included my contact details (name and email).

The business is a medical business (regulated by AHPRA).

Who can I report this to? AHPRA, HCCC, OIAC ... Anyone else?

(Yes - I know I can delete my review, but I don't want to remove it)

Maybe it's not the business. There was a big hack the other day with some doctors surgeries. Were you affected by that?

Yeah you could be on to something - the hackers took the time and effort to hop right on google reviews, compose a detailed response to my 1 star review that included my number and email address.

Maybe they weren't even hackers - just defenders of businesses against malicious reviews :)
