Uh, I don't think I've ever really used my real identity online. So I guess every account would be 'fake' under these criteria? Huh, I just find it baffling how few people seem to care the slightest bit about their 'privacy' (or keeping the internet profile separate from their real life one), and how willing they are to just share all their personal info with the world for free.

I'm also very skeptical that the Australian authorities will be able to police this at all, since well... what incentive does the rest of the world have to care? They're not gonna try and block every site that doesn't authenticate their users, and many sites simply won't have a presence on Australian soil. So we'll probably see a huge flood of anonymous and pseudononymous social media platforms anyway.
