HackerNews included?
It does seem like a reasonable solution. A rewind back to the age when it had been just the newsgroups. Without +1 algorithms that result in the algorithm making a choice what users see and not the opposite.
Certainly a better solution, if compared to forcing everyone to show their Real Id, just to verify their age to access the Internet.

- burnished 4y agoI'm not doing your homework for you - if you think HN is personalized it should be trivial to show it.
- nextlevelwizard 4y agoThere is just no response I can make that wouldn't be an insult, but couple of points: - if you make a claim then burden of proof is on you - I never actually claimed that HN was tailored, just pointed out that you can't tell if that was the case I won't be reading more from you
