@mullvadnet@mastodon.online That is abhorrent. Doesn't exactly make it easier that "age verification" (some mechanism of proof) can actually be "age attestation" (enter data yourself), as it's the case in e.g. the California bill: This bill, beginning January 1, 2027, would require [...] an operating system provider, as defined, to provide an accessible interface at account setup that requires an account holder, as defined, to indicate the birth date, age, or both, of the user of that device [...]. see https://blog.giovanh.com/blog/2026/03/22/os-level-age-attestation-is-the-good-one/ ∧ https://blog.giovanh.com/blog/2026/03/22/identity-verification-is-as-bad-as-it-can-be/. I don't think keeping the status quo is politically feasible right now, but we can definitely get an explicit distinction through to go for attestation
