Just my assumption, couldn't answer that definitively. I'm guessing that, like GDPR in the EU, it will apply to any and all social media website on the internet, but for practical reasons, can't really be enforced outside of the legislating authorities' jurisdiction. I mean, Cuba, for instance, could fine you at any time if they had laws permitting for it, but if you've never been, and never intend to go to Cuba, it doesn't really do very much
Going back to the real world, I'm doubtful foreign websites hosted outside of Australia, by non Australians, would ever be "prosecuted", it's just a huge waste of time. Maybe any countries we have close relationships with would do our dirty work for us. I assume that this would apply to any Australian or any Australian company or any Australian server. Just my non professional assumption though, could be totally wrong!
