Phishing for material for sextortion has never been more trivial. The implementation of this is going to lead to mass fraud. Walk into parliament, ask who is willing to go to jail in defense of the act if and when the first lot of randy pensioners are bankrupted, or kid commits suicide out of shame - and if no one raises their hand, repeal it.

It seems that your argument is more about the way the verification is implemented and not about the idea of verification by itself.

>>reliab+wl4
The idea that you should verify your legal identity to load a website is reprehensible and not something that should be treated seriously. It should be ridiculed like the authoritarian nonsense it is.

>>pc86+vu4
Maybe, maybe not. It should be debated, and all the pros and cons should be considered.

But age verification as a concept is a completely separate issue from the implementation of the verification system itself.
