Children have parents (or otherwise adult guardians) that are responsible to keep them safe, online and offline. It is their job to keep them safe. Adults, on the other hand, have freedoms granted to them by the constitution, at least in the USA, and I kind of enjoy those freedoms.

I guess I agree with the judge here, face scans (or other verification measures) are pretty invasive.

They want to take a picture of your face to analyse it to determine approximate age to access certain content and claim that this is minimally invasive… do I understand that correctly?

And the objection is first amendment?

Where do I order one of those tinfoil hats from?

All the real problems aside, what if you have a baby face? I’m 32 and I regularly get carded buying something you can buy at 18.
