So awesome that the nation's so-called eSafety Commissioner is forcing every Australian over the age of 16 to hand over our biometric data to overseas-based companies whose business model is about monetising personal data & linking online accounts to real world individuals.
Excellent work everybody.

After going through above, I was sent an email, which sent me to the Kids Web Services website. I chose "Face Scan", which directed me to Yoti, face was scanned and it began estimating my age. It was taking so long I forgot about it, and just came back 4hrs later to see it is still "Estimating age"👍
