The man accused of uploading CCTV footage from a Queenstown bar to YouTube is defending the charge laid against him by Queenstown Police.
Jonathan Dixon is also refusing to speak to any media who have reported anything negative about him or his family.
The 40-year-old, of Fernhill, has denied one charge of accessing a computer system and dishonestly obtaining video surveillance footage last month, following the beginning of "Tindallgate'' at the Rugby World Cup.
England rugby captain Mike Tindall was accused of cavorting with a now infamous "mystery blonde'' at the Altitude Bar in Queenstown on September 1, the England team's first night in the resort.
Tindall has now reportedly confessed the pair visited popular Queenstown bar Cowboys later that evening, having previously stated he returned to his hotel room.
The media pack lay in wait for Dixon again this morning, who arrived with a coffee for TV3 reporter Leanne Malcolm and announced he would make a statement following his appearance.
He then gestured at Radio New Zealand journalist Steve Wilde, whom he took exception to being questioned by at his first appearance last month.
In court, duty solicitor Mike Newell told Judge Dominic Flatley that Dixon intended to defend the charge and had been attempting to get disclosure from the police.
Judge Flatley remanded Dixon on bail to October 17 for a status hearing.
Outside the courthouse Dixon roamed towards the media scrum like it was second nature, and said he would speak to the media over his charges and the newest developments on the English rugby team in Dunedin, but only on his own terms - he would only talk to media who hadn't said "something or quoted something negative about me or my family'' looking at Mr Wilde.
He then said he would take one-on-one interviews with the media he found he could talk to and abruptly left after waving the media scrum goodbye.
