I've never used twitter on a phone, yet that's the only official way to go through the age verification process. Youtube too.
I attempted to get through the youtube one on a new account to see an age-gated video, but couldn't finish the process and gave up. At the time, I remember thinking it would be easier for me to buy an age verified google account from someone.
- JustSkyfall 8mo agoMy theory is that the vast majority of users won't have an Android with root access/a jailbroken iPhone, which reduces the risk of using a virtual camera? Then they can just block emulators/rooted/jailbroken devices which increases the barrier to entry.
