The worse thing* is that now they will all be known as “Australian-style”.

We used to be known for our electoral system and a variation of the butterfly swimming stroke. Now we will be known for a lame-arse attempt to restrict people’s access to content “for the children”*

*this is not actually the worse thing about this legislation; it actually puts at-risk children at more risk.
