Today I read the #ageVerification tagged posts on a tech oriented Mastodon server. What a bunch of hyperbole! Come on (guys), you have the knowledge and writing ability to make this stuff understandable to the public. Don't just cry 'apocalypse!' to each other. Make your case. Explain to the concerned-citizen mom down the street. Tell her why age verification will hurt everyone. It is true, so just say it in a readable way. Sigh.
