You think Meta secretly wanted to remove 4.7m Australian users while saying:

> "We call on the Australian government to engage with industry constructively to find a better way forward, such as incentivising all of industry to raise the standard in providing safe, privacy-preserving, age-appropriate experiences online, instead of blanket bans,"

because ultimately they think it will attract more users to their platforms?
