I get the feeling that privacy advocates like the German CCC or the EFF in the US need to get ahead of this chat control and age verification bullshit by implementing a privacy-first age verification system prototype. Something where you can identify yourself as adult that is both trustworthy and anonymous.

Because if they don’t, palantir will implement your age verification and harvest all your data.

You mean like buying anonymous tokens in a supermarket that have an 18+ sales rule on them and you have to show your ID as when you buy booze? It’s not like it isn’t trivial. It’s just that out government fucks want totalitarian control. Fuck them all with a rusty rebar.
