And I agree with you, there's some unspeakable shit out there, much of it, IMO, not fit for child nor adult, but making everyone pony up ID or facial recognition data or whatever will remove none of that, nor make it less accessible to children. Given basic child psychology it will, in fact, make it more attractive, more's the pity, and time and again children have shown themselves highly effective at circumventing it.This is also AusGov, home of some of the worst IT implementations in the world, whose current plan is, as disclosed so far a month out, she'll be right mate, we got the same mob as the UK used and they reckon it's fine. Better moderation requirements on large social media sites, better blocklists with easy secure implementation explained well to parents, any other number of other things would be more effective and non invasive. But no, it's cheaper (possibly negative expense if there are kickbacks) to let facebook ask for ID or worse.
