We all know “proof of age” or “age verification” is synonymous with mass surveilance, but the words “proof of age” were cleverly choosen so the average person considers it the same as showíng another person a driver’s license. Unecessary or otherwise it’s only a minor inconvenience. And there is no harm to privacy.
So what should we call “proof of age” or “age verification” which is just as punchy, but communicatee the real intent? How can we subvert this attack on our rights by turning these twisted words against themselves?
This is called digital ID, especially now that the shills, as much as I hate the ideas of those Jesuit-aligned sons of biscuits, may have been somewhat right about it.
De-anonymizing
“Info tax”.

Age-gate

Humans abusing other humans. A tale as old as time itself.
I don’t know, but I’m about to go to a church and swipe some religious asshat’s purse or wallet while they’re preying and use their ID to watch pr0n.

Is it? I was under the impression that websites would use private identity verification companies like iDenfy to perform age verification. The identity verification company would need to use a government API to verify the person’s existence and age, but this doesn’t necessarily mean that the identity verification company is reporting to the government which people have initiated age verification, or for which websites.

Oh sweet summer child.
Unless it’s designed to not be capable of doing it (its not), they are doing it and it’s the intended plan.
In the EU the legal framework requires a ZKP implantation. Laws would be broken if traceability was introduced.
Well that’s awesome. I had heard Germany did a ZKP solution, I didn’t realize it was EU law.
I don’t really expect anywhere but the EU to do that though. ZKP are really the only way to do it if it’s going to be done.
