I get the sentiment but I’m sure the execution will be ineffective at best.

✅ Are you 18 years or older?

Or: ✅ are you a parent who gives their child permission to access this site?

This reminds me of those website ads that'd tell you to ask your parents first.

...How is this even possible to enforce? Are they going to make websites collect scans of everyone's ID like what PornHub was protesting?

The social media provider must "verify, using a commercially reasonable method" the person's identity and the relationship to the minor.

You cam do that through credit card probably.
