Responding to eSafety’s roadmap last year, the government set a few tests that any age verification scheme would have to meet. They included confidence it can’t be circumvented, can be easily applied to companies based abroad, and don’t risk the privacy of adults looking to legally access porn.
This is going absolutely nowhere then. All three of those bullet points are impossible problems on their own. What a waste of money.

Australia, the testing ground for bad privacy invading policy for the five (/thirteen/whatever we’re up to now) eyes. Also run by technical morons (“The laws of mathematics are very commendable, but the only law that applies in Australia is the law of Australia”). ASSAct etc.
