First, these solutions have technical and legal requirements that will create a digital exclusion problem for some people. For example, the EU age verification app requires a smartphone and some ID documentation to enroll.
Second, the anonymous age verification methods are really easy to circumvent. With the EU app, a QR code must be scanned to do the age check, but it is impossible to check whether this is done by the actual user or someome else.

@je5perl@eupolicy.social @_elena@mastodon.social @eff@mastodon.social ...i agree it's problematic, even if it is possible to realize from a technical perspective which i think it is, personally i am not for these measures
