Remember when in the 90s they pushed v-chip for tvs and everyone thought it was stupid? And then in 2000 the government mandated it be in all televisions? And how it wasn't universally adopted due to poor implementation? Well, this time it will surely work
I do not trust these tech companies pushing this. I don鈥檛 know them and I don鈥檛 trust them with my key personal data.

This has got to be pushed by lobbyists for "age verification" tech that dosn'f work.
The billionaires will not stop until they know everything about everyone.
How is this even going to be enforced? Is this going to be required for all the operating systems that don't even have a GUI? Does my VM or server need an age-verification? So dumb.

Bullshit! Parents need to step up. This is nothing more than an effort to collect information on social media participants and strip away any possibilities of anonymity.
