As has already been said, this has been around in Australia since at least the mid 2000's.
IMO it's correlated to trouble spots, places that get a lot of fights or drug use. If I go to a place that scans my ID and only has plastic "glasses" then I know to keep my wits about me.
Thankfully I don't frequent such places and you don't see it at nicer bars or clubs.
It's not something you ever see in Malaysia or other SEA countries.
