You’ve failed to understand the problem entirely… the entire internet asks users to confirm they are above a certain age when creating accounts… and that happened because the USA demanded it. There’s nothing authoritarian about it… it’s a simple ‘Are you over 13yrs of age’ and you tick yes… that was it.

Good. They shouldn’t. Age verification online is an authoritarian scam.

Funny how it doesn’t seem to be a problem in any other country.

What they are being fined for (potentially) is not asking for users’ age during account creation. Not whatever you think (in spite of op being clear)

They don’t have to deal with the taste of British dick in their mouth.
