    I’m all pro Age Verification, the good old “If you are over 18 click yes”

      If you are over 18 click yes

      Years ago, I heard of a guy who failed one of the voluntary “enter your age” checks because it thought he was 7 years old. He was actually 107, but the system only considered the last two digits.

    I’m not worried. Either it’ll only affect their dedicated servers. Or it’ll be integrated into mastodon itself and then quickly forked.

    If I setup my own private instance and don’t make myself verify my age… can they still stop me from following others or other instances following me in some way?

    It would only ever be instances specific would it not?

    I mean… They have to.

    Countries are making it law, so sooner or later, fedi projects are going to have to deal with that crap.

    Don’t be lawful evil, be neutral good. Or even chaotic good.
