@kuriko If Age Verification has to exist, these are the only forms I will tolerate:
-Self-Certifying Checkbox
-Offline Verification of ID Documents
-Credit Card Verification (should be expanded to Debit Cards as well, Banks know your age)
-Device-Based Verification (i.e. apps and sites only know a user's general age category)
-Zero-Knowledge Verification

Again, I'm not saying these are good, rather they are the least bad. Online scans of ID documents (Government ID, Passport, etc.) are a privacy and security nightmare.
