It forces internet usage to be attached to real identities, in order to make sure your not breaking the laws with children, and all the bad, bad consequences that can come from that.
And if you don't see how that can be an issue, you have lived a blessed life where you or your family & friends were not prosecuted by violent authoritarian governments arms, that exist in liberal democracies today or discriminated against for minority attribute X, both of which exist even in Scandinavia today.
- gtirloni 4y agoOK, so the theory is that age will be another signal in profiling users for $purpose. Thanks.
- novok 4y agoIt wont 'just' be age, it will be hard verified identities vs. vague fingerprints dependent on the user playing ball with their browser software and not using VPNs. Otherwise how would they actually know the user's age?
- mwint 4y agoMore that the process of verifying age leaks a lot of unrelated information.
