Even better, do a Google image search for “porn” and turn off filters. You will see pornography hosted by Google’s servers! I can’t understand why, at least in the spirit of these new laws, Google is exempt from age verification.

(In practice, sections 80 and 81 in the Online Safety Act carve out exemptions for “search” and “user-to-user” sites. For the former, presumably the exemption is because the actual porn is served from machines other than Google’s.)
