This is the future those who push for age verification want for us.

@Gargron
I consider this type of age verification to be very negligent and pointless.

It would be more important to teach children how to use social media responsibly and how to recognize fake news and the like from a very early age – YES, IN SCHOOL.
@mischi2000 @Gargron Just leave parenting to parents, the world does not need 'nanny states'.
@harib_murshidi @mischi2000 @Gargron it were never parents who pushed for these laws. They were lobbists.

@canleaf @mischi2000 @Gargron

Please read up on PMRC and the history of this label which was put on music albums ! Before that there was Comic Code Authority of America, later on there was a huge outcry over #MortalKombat !

It was not the lobbies but the parents of many children who sued Ozzy Osbourne and Judas Priest (I only know about them but there are more cases out there) and there were all kinds of allegations like 'hidden messages' if you play the song backwards

@harib_murshidi @mischi2000 @Gargron Yes I I know. These are lobby groups who now see more AI agents on the web than organic human users and now they need verifications.

@canleaf @mischi2000 @Gargron Well, those lobby groups have 'convinced' enough real people out there that #digitalid and #ageverification is the way ! So it's not limited to lobby groups alone when you and I encounter many people who are all for 'age verification' and bringing more 'real people' on these platforms (pretty much ending up internet anonymity)

Pardon me, I don't even know where this is going and it is turning into a rant ! :| So I'm going to take a step back from this

@harib_murshidi @mischi2000 @Gargron it is a measurement of spionage, worse than the GDR and USSR together.
