The part I'm most opposed to is requiring a full KYC, using "verifying age" as an excuse. My Gmail account has been active for >18 years, that should be enough proof.

… but how many people really believe that will happen?

Fight together with everyone else, or when stage 2 (“full KYC”) is implemented you won’t have any leverage.

It won’t because KYC is a legal process and you don’t want to prophets that across the entire system with bypasses for it. That’s legal trouble waiting to happen.

Yes, Google also wants to tie back to legal identities to sell ads. I’m not saying they’re doing this in good faith, but proxies like this get messy and dangerous for legal/compliance.

		"you don’t want to prophets that across the entire system"? Typo? But it's hard to tell what.
