There are already laws that are supposed to make it harder for minors to access pornographic content are there not? Why does it need to be regulated twice?
To be clear, I am not of the opinion that the Australian bill is something that needs passed to protect muh kids or what have you. I am merely pointing out the hypocracy of Youtube being regulated as a social media platform, but not Pornhub, despite Pornhub having very similar features as Youtube, the only difference being the focus of content.
As an aside, if Australia's Pornhub is anything like the US's, a "Yes, I am 18" button shouldn't fly. If one can't just proclaim to be of legal age for alcohol, tobacco, etc and must prove their age, why should online pornography be any different?
