None of the age verification services respect privacy - that’s baked into the whole push for it. Because it’s not just about “verifying” people’s ages at a specific point in time, especially in the US, it’s about being able to prove you have in case anyone tries to sue you.

Headlines like this really need to put the emphasis on the cause, e.g. “UK Government Forces Bluesky to Roll Out Age Verification”

You can tell my brain already left for the long weekend - no idea where that brain fart came from.

From the guy who glossed over real historical/social issues in Titanic? Who ignored many of the moral issues of Bruce Wayne preferring to play dress up instead of working to fix Gotham? [Edit: I’m an idiot] Or who ripped off storylines from better movies, slapped Papyrus font on the title, and made an overly indulgent series of movies that are more pretty screensaver than cinema? He can fuck off.
