Repeal The Online Safety Act Petition Dismissed Despite Getting Almost 400,000 Signatures

In practical terms, this means that sites and services like Twitter, Bluesky, Discord, and more had to implement age verification systems, and the methods used to verify ages have raised a series of privacy concerns.
