Every single time. And every single time it happens, the politicians who mandated these systems and the companies that built them act shocked—shocked!—that collecting enormous databases of government IDs, facial scans, and biometric data from millions of people turns out to be a security nightmare."
Flo Hacker@TheLastOfHisName Or: you have a zero knowledge protocol where the user presents a certain encrypted dataset, and the service can just check if that user is above a certain age or not, and if the name matches or not. This can be leveraged with Blockchain technology. And yes, initially needs the public authority to register your birth date and name, but that happens everywhere already.
But private companies do not need to store any data about you in this case

@hypolite this data is already well known to the state authorities so it's too late already to complain :) and better only the state has it than every private company builds their own datasets
