I've been proposing the same thing on this site for months. IMO anonymous age verification with no record-keeping is the only form of age verification that should exist. No zero knowledge proofs, no centralized government identity provider, nothing.
- voxic11 8mo agoZero knowledge proofs are better than this "bearer token" proposal because all what is needed to unmask an account is for the shop to note down the name on the ID and the code that was given to them.
- triceratops 8mo agoI already wrote "no record keeping" in my first comment. Shop at stores that don't do that. If that doesn't work write it into the law that they aren't allowed to record your ID. For alcohol and tobacco, stores don't even card people that obviously appear to be legal age. So most people won't ever show any ID to a clerk. I've been buying alcohol since turning legal age, in multiple countries and jurisdictions. Never had my ID scanned or stored.
