This is how you make it difficult for moronic governments (and their mostly incompetent politicians) that are trying to create dumbass laws, to have to think about how you have to literally write “CYA” (cover your ass) types of rules/policies to try and deal with every single angle/potential loophole when these things should be handled at the personal level (devices and home networking equipment using their parental controls system).
The UK will also likely be self-owning themselves with neutering their own GDPR (similarly, any EU country that begins going down this age verification path will also do the same for the EU GDRP). The U.S. never had as robust privacy laws and is also now way “up the creek” with how so much personal data of U.S. citizens has been turned over to DOGE, Immigrations and Customs, etc in violation of so many privacy regulations (but with the entire system of institutions now being controlled by a criminal enterprise, there is no one to uphold the actual rule of law).
The world is just turning into a global idiocracy of enshittification where there isn’t enough popcorn to keep your mouth filled as you watch this clown act continuing to unfold.
