Denial Takes Hold as Teens Circumvent Australian Age Verification
The failure of the Australian age verification laws has left advocates with the only tool left in the chest: denial.
They should solve this problem by using the same enforcement methods with alcohol access on underage social media users. I never knew anyone in high school who ever drank!

i’m just so concerned that this is the horseman of the end of the private internet, or what was left of it.
they aren’t going to give this up or walk it back. i reckon they’ll instead try to stand up more invasive verification.
The outcomes were completely predictable. Teens were using sharpies and pictures of golden retrievers to defeat the age verification systems. Others utilized the more reliable VPN technology to defeat the censor walls. The technology became an absolute security and privacy nightmare following the Discord breach, the AgeGO scandal, and additional data leaks and breaches to boot.
🤣🤣🤣
…who could have seen this coming?..
Not systemd
This is one zestily written article from a website I’ve never heard of before.
“If people want to vent like that, then so be it,” said Wipfli, a radio broadcaster known to Australians as Wippa, speaking from his home in Sydney.
Radio stations should mandate age verification /s
