Comment on Reddit users in the UK must now upload selfies to access NSFW subreddits

So what you’re telling me is you don’t think an 11/13/14 yo could use an LLM to age up a selfie to gain access to subreddits they shouldn’t be accessing (legally or morally). But you do think that same age group of children is going to gain root access to a device in order to flash some software to circumvent a device specific toggle limiting their device by hard coding it as a child’s device.

Tbh I’m surprised they’re not asking for government issued id along with the selfie.

I’m gonna be honest here. I don’t think it would be that difficult for a kid to get both from their parent.
