It seems like a great way to deprive young people of education and exposure to foreign culture. Not to mention asking everyone to validate there age seems like a great way to ruin the entire internet.
You taking it a little far I think there. Education into foreign culture can be provided by books.
Anyway, there are things that children should not be allowed to have access to. And that access has always been partially governed by parents and partially governed by Society.
Now when I was a kid my dad could take me to an R-rated movie and that’s fine. But no parent, no admission.
When you’re there in person someone can look at you and make a judgment of your age or they can ID you.
That’s not possible using the internet without people saying it’s too invasive.
So we need some kind of solution which provides enough anonymity while also being able to absolutely confirm you are above certain age.
What the heck is a “novel solution”
