Isn’t that level already socially normalized? Every second website asks me for my birthday to derive my age for as long as I can think. Many of them ask me basically every time I use them (even Steam, where I am logged in and my payment history alone should imply that I am old enough).

no, you are not forced to input any truthful information nor credit cards or id checks or facial recognition just yet. most sites (that i use at least) usually have multiple payment methods with varying levels of “privacy” that doesn’t really force you to identify yourself to them.
