  How are kids banned without an ID check?

      Oh, I was reading it and stopped at a full-page ad I thought was the end. Looking again, it goes on to mention enforcement, but it's still vague.

    >>> Companies have told Canberra they will deploy a mix of age inference - estimating a user's age from their behaviour - and age estimation based on a selfie, alongside checks that could include uploaded identification documents. An algorithmic bouncer guesses your age and if he isn't happy you have to feed him proof until he is happy.

      That sounds like ID is going to be required, at least eventually. Either that or kids are not actually banned.

  My belief is that late stage capitalism pushes democracies to fascism and the overton window requires politicians to break-up unpopular changes into a smaller changes. I am prognosticating why politicians would pretend to care about the mental health of children.

    "Late stage capitalism" is a term used by socialists to describe the period immediately before N̵o̵s̵t̵r̵a̵d̵.. er Marx's glorious socialist revolution. Predicting it will lead to fascism instead is... humorous.
