Comment on Age Verification Is A Windfall for Big Tech—And A Death Sentence For Smaller Platforms

Hopefully, in the EU at least, the verification will be provided by the government. Like a 2FA, meaning Big Tech would only get a verified token and nothing else.

The government already got passports with our face, and have had it for many years. They could use that information.

That would mean that any platform could implement this verification, and never get hold on any data.

Best case in a shitty scenario, I know.
