The history of legal challenges and attention from the right of politics in the US suggests no easy solution in the eSafety toolkit – short of ministerial intervention.

Well, let there be ministerial intervention. Let there be a spat. Under Australian law capital punishment is forbidden. Why should we be made to see it live using the platforms of foreign countries?

Who cares if there's a spat with the United States after this? If this nation can inconvenience its own populace with age-gates like they've been doing with these age restricted codes and standards as well as the social media ban for under 16s, they can make some sort of effort, however half-assed it might be to block the viewing of such barbarism should the US actually go through with it.

The United States continues to be the embarrassment of the world and we've been America's bitch plenty long enough at this point.

These laws were developed with the view to block streaming of terror attacks but could have wider applications for state-sponsored violence such as executions.

Welp, that's a great look...
