I get people want to protect their kids. But I don't agree with age verification. If people can't figure out parental controls, maybe they can buy a phone plan

If people can't figure out parental controls, maybe they can buy a phone plan that has it already set up in advance. We don't need laws for this.
- OkayPhysicist 2mo agoThe California version of "age verification" IS parental controls. There is no actual verification happening. The OS is required to have an age associated with a user, declared, but not proven in any way, at setup. That value is then accessible to handle age gating.
- jakzurr 2mo agoOK, sounds workable. I'm still bothered by that data being available on a child's phone. I guess we'll see what people decide.
