Stop calling it an under 16 ban
it's age verification for fucking everyone
and the best part is Albo is losing preferred prime minister polls to a fucking potato because of this nonsense
Can't wait to see how these geniuses plan on implementing this.
- They tell the platforms to implement it and fine them for not doing it
  
  Haha the platforms will implement a disclaimer which will achieve 5/8ths of fuck all
  
  Ok. Smaller platforms like this here lemmy server don't do anything because it's expensive, or they are ethically opposed. They have no business in Australia and fines can't be collected. Australian kids (and adults who want to be anonymous, or don't like the government-mandated changes) flock to these platforms.
  What now?
- The only way I see that'd be possible is by requiring state id for it which is just mass surveillance.
  
  Australia Card 2025 here we come! I expect better from the Labor party, this is some Scott Morrison grade shit right here.
- Pube measurements.
  
  Totally going to get rid of the paedofiles ..
But then how will Bluey video call her grandparents??? /j
