Age verification laws force platforms to collect IDs, biometrics or behavioral data, directly conflicting with data minimization principles. 🔍

Recurring checks and stored proof for regulators create breach-prone archives, exposing everyone—not just minors—to surveillance risks. 🔒

Is Age Verification a Trap?

Platforms are caught in a dilemma: enforce age restrictions or protect user privacy. How are they navigating this tricky terrain?

IEEE Spectrum

Colorado’s SB26-051 would make OSes (Windows, Android, iOS, Linux) collect an “age signal” at setup and expose it via API to every app in broad age brackets 📊

Even if “minimal data” is promised, normalising OS‑level age tagging for all apps raises serious long‑term risks for privacy and user autonomy 🔒
