  Can you still access the connected email? Dumb question but I’m not certain of how it all works

    By that logic U16s could then just access whatever unrestricted if they don’t sign in?

    Age-restricted results will be blurred by default unless you are logged in and meet the minimum age requirement. Those sites that are age-restricted will also require age assurance (porn, for example).

    Also can you still access the connected email or need to get a new one if you don’t verify?

    I’m not sure how Google will choose to implement it. Maybe age assurance won’t be required at all unless you try to disable the new restrictions. In the case of app stores, for example, no age assurance will be required unless you want to search for R18+ apps.
