Australians soon facing age checks when viewing adult websites [& search engines, social media, file sharing, etc, etc]

And all service providers/hosts around the world are expected to comply.

Here's one summary of the looming access control measures.

Reading and understanding all this (and the linked sources) feels so.. difficult, obtuse, complex.

I forget who said it, but I remember a quote like, "When a bipartisan bill is being introduced that's when you know the people are getting well and truly fucked."

EDIT: Not a quote, but this is an article from the Harvard Political Review about US policy: https://harvardpolitics.com/deadly-bipartisanship/

Among some of the bipartisan bills are the 94 Crime Bill, The Patriot Act, yearly military budget increases, it's really a highlight reel of the fucking worst, most infamous bills from US politics.

I'd be shocked if any liberal electoral system was significantly different to this.
