    Good in theory, but in practice… how is this going to be enforced? The only ways I can think of involve excessive invasion of privacy, again, under the banner of “Save The Children”, again.

      I’m tentatively hopeful it will use the pre-existing government SSO, which would be the ideal solution, since no data would be transferred to the website or third parties.

      Plenty of EU countries have digital ID apps already and provide services like signing documents using that ID. Adding something like zero-knowledge proof with passkeys-like UI probably isn’t that much harder than putting people on the moon.

      I’d love if every mass social media was required to provide „this is an actual verified human behind this account” flag on every account because we’re about to face an age where trust is the most valuable currency around.

    France actually has a national digital ID scheme that provides single sign-on for government services, so let’s see if they integrate with the existing technology or just leave sites to fill in the blanks with dodgy third-party age-verification like every other country that has tried this.

    I fucking knew this bullshit would spread worse than a bushfire when my corrupt government rammed it through.
