No method of age verification is entirely actuate. It seem a hardline stance that we can't think up a process that would allow for a reasonable level of accuracy with privacy. It could literally be drawing a usb token from a bucket full of them after a human at the DMV visually checks your license.

Age checks are becoming mandatory this July but the idea of having a privacy-respecting option seems to have been dropped.
