I give it 2 years till Netflix requires you to have an ID every time you open the app because it has rated R movies.

This is the same principle. The account holder agreement should make the account holder responsible for the use of the service.

The government shouldn’t be parenting our minors, their guardians should be.

Otherswise we should put digital locks on every beer bottle, pack of cigarettes, blunt raps, car door, etc. That requires you to scan your ID before every use.

“Kids shouldn’t be driving cars, it isn’t safe!” Yes, but somehow we have made it 100 years without requiring proof of age/license to start the car.

And the car is far more deadly than them seeing someone naked.
