I was thinking the same.

If the age verification responsibility lies with the companies, it would mean each one spends as little as possible and we end up with a dozen poorly implemented databases, all ripe for a breach. If the government handles it, that's better I suppose because one system could be made more robust, but that's a big expense.

I suppose the companies that would need it could be taxed to cover the costs of this system, but you know how companies love being taxed. I'm sure smarter people than me are working on it though.

Pretty sure it’d be government, next to the single patient digital record. Put a nice big bow on it in a government data centre we can fund short term with all the savings from aged care and disability supports 💪🏻
