I appreciate the thoughts you put into the comment!

I think I have a few comments that’s both for and against:

• it’s all about implementation: I’d hope for a token-based “I’m-an-adult” system - you’d be able to confirm age without vendor getting any other info than “this person is of age”, and with the government just knowing “you used a token somewhere” but the cynic in me tells a lot of places will use"protect the kids" as a pretext for more surveillance and implement it in shitty ways
• we’re being spied on anyways - this story is about high-level spying, but as far as I remember, they had access to all internet traffic
