Do they have any rule that says you need a minimum number of users on a site to fall under the law?

If servers of someinstance.co.au fine if they move to hosting in Finland?

It just feels like a nightmare.

How are they going to enforce any of that on a company with no office in Australia? Answer: They can’t.

Then how am I still able to access youtube, facebook and all the others without needing to give them my ID?

You think youtube and facebook don't have offices in Australia?

That’s a lot of text just to say “I’m an idiot who loves bending over for the government”.

I'm simply telling you what the government is telling social media companies that allow Australian users to create accounts on their websites

You can change your DNS all you want mate, I'm just saying it won't make a difference
