What’s more, it is possible to verify age online in a way that doesn’t enable governments to see what sites you visit
Would you upload your ID to Lemmy? Because that’s what the “age verification” requires you to do.
Maybe you’d rather upload a video of your face from many different angles, which is absolutely never going to be used for nefarious purposes, pinky promise.
Without Karens like you, we wouldn’t have shit like the OSA. That’s why there are so many angry replies.
Now you have to pay for a VPN to have free access to the internet in the UK, many UK hosted sites had to shut down or block the UK wholly for UK users.
There’s no such thing as anonymous age verification, you can browse the web freely without creating an account. Age verification removes that anonymity. I don’t really care about the EU age verification shit, we already have that in Germany, porn websites of course ignore that law because nobody would use their site if they had to verify everyones age. They just removed all .de domains.

Yeah that person sucks ass. I won’t tolerate that shit
Once again, have you read the EU proposal? We are, after all, talking about France here, not the UK.
The UK, no longer part of the EU, of course have gone much softer and enabled non-anonymous verification. I am of course deeply against this.
What I AM talking about is the ZKP method mandated by the EU, which is anonymous.
I’ll ignore your name calling; not very conducive to a debate.
No ZKP system can work because someone can generate hundreds of tokens and hand them out to whoever wants one.
Only the entity that owns the private key can generate signed tokens. You can read about the Danish solution, which is the first and most developed implementation of the EU’s requirements for anonymity: https://digst.dk/media/5gybwsaq/implementing-age-verification-with-danish-digital-identity-wallet-dktb-09.pdf
