Online pornography showing strangulation or suffocation is to be made illegal, as part of government plans to tackle violence against women and girls.

It follows a review which found depictions of choking were “rife” on mainstream porn sites and had helped normalise the act among young people.

Both the possession and publication of such material will be a criminal offence, under amendments to the Crime and Policing Bill currently going through Parliament.

    I saw an articles with 2015 date regarding it. I found this from another site as of 2020

    In the process of banning the production, distribution and possession of child Adultography, the government also made it illegal for adults to portray children in these productions. Take special note that we said adults, not women with small breasts.

    Small breasts Adult in Australia has not been banned, however, the actress must not be made to appear to be a child under the age of 18 years.
