Well, it's ridiculous.

At the moment there is quite a furore in Australia over a federal government plan to "censor the internet" - and to be honest, there is a whole lot of mis-information around.

And there are some updates on the article you posted above here, where the classification board responds

From my reading of it, they have cited "the underdeveloped nature of the breasts" as part of a broader refused classification based on the models "appearing" under 18, regardless of their actual age. That I think, is a whle other problem, but it's not as simple as banning small breasts in porn
