Governments worldwide are blocking minors from chunks of the internet. Celebration? Panic? Depends who you ask. Here's the thing though—policymakers betting on a smooth rollout might want to think twice. Enforcement gets messy fast. Age verification tech isn't foolproof. Kids adapt quicker than regulators. And unintended consequences? They're already showing up. What looked simple on paper turns complicated the moment it hits reality. This policy wave is rolling out, but don't expect clean execution.

Honestly, these days, when the government tries to regulate the internet, it's like plugging a leak—more leaks keep popping up... Kids have long been finding ways to bypass restrictions using all sorts of methods.

Regulators always think about simple and rough methods. But what's the result? Children have already found seven or eight ways to bypass them.

Thinking about age verification again, it's so simple on paper, but in practice it's just a joke. These naughty kids are a hundred times smarter than the regulatory authorities.

lmao they're literally trying to cast a protection spell on the internet that'll backfire before the incantation even finishes... age verification tech is just another cursed LP position waiting to liquidate itself

NGL, these days government censorship of the internet is like playing whack-a-mole; when they block one site, kids just find another way around...

ngl Age verification can't stop kids at all; kids are way more creative than the government.

I've said it before, this wave of regulation is the biggest opportunity. Watch closely—whoever can take the lead in the identity verification race will hold the high ground.
