The Australian law isn't vague in saying that it's illegal for websites to require you to upload your ID. The penalty for requiring users to upload their ID is the same as the penalty for deliberately allowing minors.

You are repeatedly making big claims about the Australian law without citing any specific parts supporting them. I don't see anything in the law that:

- Makes it illegal to ask users for ids.

- Sets the same "penalty" for requiring ids as for "deliberately allowing minors"

Please either provide supporting evidence or stop making misleading claims.

Section 63DB.

Please actually read before making me waste rate limit slots.

		I did actually read it - section 63DB allows them to ask for and collect ids as long as they also provide "alternative means". Which in reality means that they will first ask for a selfie video, then for id unless you have lots of grey hairs and wrinkles. Which makes it even worse because they will also have your biometrics in addition to bunch of personal information from your id!
