December 10, 2025, the Australian Online Safety Act has been implemented requiring identity checks for internet access.

The Digital ID Act 2024 in Australia is a vehicle for extensive surveillance, potentially linking personal data such as biometrics to financial accounts and digital currency. Governmental assurances of voluntary participation do not help, fearing that such measures may become mandatory, leading to total control and loss of individual freedoms.

Australia is implementing a digital ID system for all, including minors, to access social media, supposedly to protect children online. The initiative, starting December 10, 2025, raises concerns about privacy and surveillance. It can only lead to excessive government control and censorship of individuals. I urge resistance. Do not comply!

The Australian government public broadcast network explains in a show BTN for under-18 year-olds that they will not be able to access any online content without age verification. But this may mean no one will have access to social media without a Digital ID.

Australia is facing increasing governmental control resembling a surveillance state, driven by initiatives like the mandatory Digital ID and age verification for social media. Critics argue it undermines freedoms in pursuit of safety, likening it to an Orwellian dystopia.

In 2024, Australia enacted a groundbreaking law prohibiting social media use for individuals under 16. This law, driven by mental health concerns, mandates age verification and could lead to significant fines for non-compliance. Critics warn of potential privacy violations and mass surveillance through proposed Digital ID systems.
