TLDW:

Brazil is requiring OS level age verification by march 17th, 2026.

New York about to vote on a law that would “require all manufacturers of internet-enabled devices, operating systems, or application stores to conduct commercially reason-able and technically feasible age assurance for users at the point of device activation.”

In order to “incentivize” age verification, The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has announced that they will ignore COPPA violations for software performing age verification.

    Polish Roman Catholic background. Not exactly tolerant either and now I live in a place that famously is Mennonite and Amish.

    Oh… I’ve heard about the Amish… So it’s practically a similar situation over there.

    If they will make you suffer why not suffer on your own terms for a cause you think worth it? Why wait to be starved by someone’s hand other than your own?

    Yeah, you’re right. There’s a part of me who thinks this way, too. I guess this whole age check thing will inevitably push me in this regard.

    I wish you safety and health though.

    Thanks! Wish you the same.
