Older men charged more for using Tinder's premium service

I've only done a quick bit of research but can't seem to find a clear list of protected characteristics in Oz like we have in the UK, age being one of them.. I don't use tinder but just looking up their pricing model it's £3.99 for under 28yo and £14.99 for 28yo and over in the UK... how is this not a breech of the Equality Act 2010?

I'm the last person to defend old men from discrimination (mostly because it's uncommon), but yeah this doesn't sound right to me.

Did you have to add the "white" in there? Was it definitely necessary or adding anything to this discussion?

Maybe take out the "old" too? Or do you really think age discrimination is uncommon?
