Is Age Verification a Trap?
The age-verification trap is not a glitch. It is what you get when regulators treat age enforcement as mandatory and privacy as optional.

Strong age verification pushes companies to collect intrusive data, rely on biometrics and IDs, and keep logs indefinitely. This goes against most privacy guidelines. It’s especially problematic in countries where privacy is already jeopardized.
