Will Rockstar activate age verification for Australian GTA Online players by the March 9 deadline?

Starting Monday, every Australian GTA Online player will need to prove they're 18 just to load into a session. Rockstar already has dormant age verification code baked into the game files, ready to flip server-side. The law carries fines of up to AU$49.5 million per violation. The code is there. The deadline is set.
