I do hate the UK one but as someone who has done GDPR work with his job I am how them companies (discord bluesky through third parties) are using the data if it is accurate. The do a in phone check if age and just sending pass/fail to the company is something I can get behind the card providers and and itch which is related is stuff which scares me more.

Going to put on a playlist of ww2 and steam engines documentaries and what X city look like back in 19XX videos. Just to make sure I’m at least 60 years old

Collective Shout being founded by a “pro-life feminist” (oxymoron ik) is just like, expected but frustrating. SWERFs make life worse for everyone.

This is so infuriating because back when this issue popped up regarding games' ratings after the Hot Coffee GTA III controversy, I thought the Supreme Court determined that forcing retailers to age verify would be unconstitutional since it would be a free speech violation. They determined that such a law would functionally force retailers, vendors, and/or game developers to self-censor their products in order to avoid needing to ID customers since that would be a huge deterrent to sales, thus being an infringement on free speech.

YouTube will prevent repeated viewing of "some kinds of content"? How much you wanna bet redpilling content won't fall under that but content by LGBTQIA+ creators will?
