These rules really worry me. I think it's really good in theory and we should be protecting kids more, especially from the big personalised algorithms of Facebook, Tiktok, and the like. Curated feeds like that of Lemmy and Reddit concern me less.

But the issue is…how do you prove age, while still enabling people the right to anonymity? I don't want to give my ID to Facebook.

Congratulations you just stumbled onto the plan to enforce online IDs through mygov! Inspired by South Koreas authoritarian governments requirement for a citizen Id to access online services.
