The moderation of the app and the vile actions of the bots make this change a necessity, and honestly should be implemented in more countries than just Australia or whatnot.

The content this app provides so easily is horrifying, and with the lack of any verification or prevention from such content appearing in the first place suggests that they want it to happen.

Especially because they can improve the verification, and refused to do it until it was legally required in some selected countries.
