Australia to require age verification using Google or Microsoft to access adult materialGet your VPNs ready! Australia, having already nominated an age limit for social media coming this December (after they work out how it will be implemented), will progress to requiring Australians to verify their identity by logging in to a Microsoft or Google account to access adult material starting with search engines.
