The group surveyed over 1,000 UK children and their parents, and while it did report some positive effects from changes made under the OSA, many children saw age verification as an easy-to-bypass hurdle rather than something that kept them genuinely safe.
A full 46 percent of children even said that age checks were easy to bypass, while just 17 percent said that they were difficult to fool. The methods kids use to fool age gates vary, but most are pretty simple: There’s the classic use of a video game character to fool video selfie systems, while in other instances, children reported just entering a fake birthday or using someone else’s ID card when that was required.
Does anyone find this surprising ?Ask anyone who know how the internet works and most will say this won’t work
They are beating age verification, but they are not beating the Identity verification, their face scan data is still being sent to some database.
They’re going to keep all users’ scanned faces (even if they say they don’t). And they’re going to create a perfect profile for each one of us.
Just wait until they hack one of these companies, it will be fun.
We need to make it illegal to age verify.
