I don't think we know wtf they've actually banned until we see the implementation details.
It could be a Pornhub-style "are you over 16?" checkbox, all the way up to building a Chinese-style identity verification system.
The worst case is that VPN use in Straya will rise a lot next year, and all the ban will effectively have done is removed parental oversight on the kids' social media accounts.
edit: spelling, and also rethinking "the worst case". The worst case is some idiotic uniquely-Australian authoritarian attempt to remove online anonymity that ends up making a complete NBN-style farce of the place.
