How is all the tracking we have today not already sufficient for mass surveillance? What does age verification add if the goal is just more surveillance?

All Internet users will be verified. No going online without a government issued id. It's not about verifying the age.

I hate to say it and it's not the future we all wanted, but as long as social media can be weaponized by foreign powers, the only solution is verifying internet users. It's inevitable.

I doubt it's the only option, just one with benefits to those with interest to censor and control others. I imagine some more tweaks in the algorithms could do quite a bit.
