And lobbying to implement age verification.

Assuming age verification should be implemented, do you think the application layer is the right place to do that, or would the OS layer make more sense?

The parental layer is the right place to do that.

I wouldn't tell you how to parent your children, and all I ask is the same consideration in return.

I just see it as an unnecessary hill to die on. Its not possible to win on those conditions so why spend energy on a failed outcome? I wish those who shared the sentiment found an effective method to achieve their goals, but online message board activism doesn't pass the sniff test.

To me it's a public health issue and shares the same, "you can do what you want, but I will not be forced into participating," that resulted in the invention of chin diapers. To an outsider both look like pathological demand avoidance[1].

It seems like the example you give points to undesirable consequences as a direct result of government intervention. Is your example meant to be a point against any sort of legislation regarding age verification?

So what’s your suggestion?

Surely you don’t support ID gating the Internet?
