Age Verification Is Coming For the Internet. We Built You a Resource Hub to Fight Back.
One of the issues with "age verification" is that an effect of the suggested technologies is that they ultimatively take control of your computer. In the suggested form, they require elements that are not controlled by you, the user. It is like replacing the lock to your home's main door, for which YOU (and only you) have the keys, with an electronic, remotely controlled lock, controlled by goverments, which can lock out at any time.

Age verification laws are proliferating fast across the United States and around the world, creating a dangerous and confusing tangle of rules about what we’re all allowed to see and do online. That's why today, we're launching EFF.Electronic Frontier Foundation

This was always to the goal of "age verification". The government wants a way to know who is behind every "subversive" comment so that they can chill speech. "For the children" is just the most convenient excuse.
If that doesn't work, it will be "to fight terrorism".

Oh, he knows. To some extent.
I don’t think Netanyahu is a “true fundamentalist” like the far right part of the government. He’s Machiavellian, a suvivalist. Perhaps it’s all some means to an end, but I think Israel’s international toxicity is very much factored into his political calculus.
I don’t mean to question his faith, and I hate to sound cynical, but he’s got a looong trail of political decisions that sure speak to that.
It’s a legitimate reason to speak out against Israel. They are committing genocide while claiming self defense for all Jewish people.
Israel does not represent all Jewish people any more than The Pope represents all Christian’s.
The Israeli government is a terrorist organization, not a religion. They endanger Jewish folks all over the world through their violent, racist, terrorist, genocidal actions and speech and propaganda.
I submit that this happened not because Australia recognizes Palestine, but that it doesn't recognize Palestine in all but pointless words. If Palestine was actually recognized as an independent country on the world stage this wouldn't have happened.
Though whoever feels the need to shoot random people partying on a beach is obviously not right in the head so there's also a chance they would have just picked something else as their reason.

“Obviously massacring unarmed men, women, and children at a Hanukkah celebration is antisemitic terror,” Nathaniel added in a separate thread. “Just like massacring unarmed men, women, and children in Gaza and the West Bank is anti-Palestinian terror. There are no moral exceptions regarding the slaughter of civilians.”Electronic Intifada director Ali Abunimah said, “Basically Netanyahu is saying that Australia got what it had coming for not supporting his genocide in Gaza even more than it already does.”
