Don’t get me wrong — I firmly believe it’s the parents’ responsibility to monitor how kids use and access the internet. We have device filter options that work well for that purpose. I see it as a misguided approach that more and more governments are introducing age verification laws, forcing people to undergo privacy-invasive age checks to access online content. Nevertheless, in countries with such age verification laws, this could now be a reasonable way to conduct privacy-preserving online age checks, as the software runs in the user’s browser, ensuring that data does not leave the user’s device! I’ll need to look into this further! #privacy #ageverification

Another example showing centralized social media is broken 🤷‍♂️
