I have a great way to ensure age verification and save the High Street. Basically, we require large tech firms who offer automated services to have brick and mortar branches.
Aside from actual manual tech support face to face, and treating their users like humans, you can go in, log in to your account in front of them so they know it's your account, flash your ID to show you're 18, and they open an app, put your account name in, and tick a 'verified' box. That's it. No fucking ID or personal info taken, you can pay them a fiver, job job. What problems are there with this?
Pic related, as it is what we are avoiding: the social media Darth Vaders getting up close and personal with our little Ewoks.

I think you created this thread just so you could post another AI image. I do not think you created this thread because you have any faith in your own idea.

I meant you flash your ID at the guy, like in any other shop (that stupid analogy of the shopkeeper the tech companies keep using). He doesn't photograph it or anything, Jesus. My point is if politicians are going to say 'hurr, it's just like giving your ID to the man behind the counter!!!' actually make it just that, show your ID, he sees your DOB, doesn't record anything at all, just says 'yeah, you're fine'.
Of course, the real flaw with your plan is that it doesn't involve giving the corpos your data. It's a sensible plan for a sensible world where we have our priorities in order. But what Kier and friends want to do is to sell as much of your data to American corpos as they can.
