Well this is the first time I think I’ve been genuinely bloody livid about an update because of iOS 26.4.

I don’t do credit cards, only debit, which is common enough in the UK, and none of the cards I input were enough to prove I’m over 18, despite the fact I purchased the damn phone, it’s tied to my Apple ID which has my birthdate, and since we don’t have ID cards and I don’t drive, my one method of verification (that being my passport) was not accepted.

As a result I cannot change some settings on the phone I spent my own money on….. What the actual hell is this utter fucking bullshit? Age verification laws strike again. Fan fucking tastic.

@FreakyFwoof I can certainly understand that. This is utterly ridiculous. I'm in America, so I have no idea if this will affect me, but I am on 26.2, and I stopped automatic updates, until things are properly resolved. No one should have to go through this.

@dandylover1 @FreakyFwoof automatic updates are a terrible idea anyway. One of the reasons that all my computers always "just work" is that I let other people beta-test updates for me.
