I really don't understand any of this "age verification" bullshit or how it holds up under even a tiny amount of scrutiny. You have to be of age to sign up for a cell-phone contract or get internet installed at your house. Every internet access account is paid for by someone "old enough".
It's like if they wanted to check IDs at the drive through before you are able to order a fucking mcdouble in order to "protect kids" from eating trash... Someone old enough to drive is already involved for the kid to order the fucking burger.
These chucklefucks in office all over the world using their inability to raise their own kids without shoving a fucking ipad in their face now using that as a way to surveil and control the entire population is a really sad slap in the face...
Because the end goal is a technocratic feudalism where the tech bros control various fiefdoms. Zuck is in with Peter Thiel who owns Palantir, an AI driven mass surveillance system that aims to de-anonymise the digital world so they can tie every byte of online activity to the person that created it.
Cambridge Analytica worked with Thiel and Musk to target right wingers with propaganda to get Trump elected and get Brexit to happen in the UK which, according to the Trump files; was a plan of Thiel and Epstein's with the goal of creating an economic crisis which they could use to consolidate their power and wealth in more places.
None of this is just the whims of weirdos, it's an actual agenda of the parasite class to take away freedom from the non-Billionaires.
