GrapheneOS says ❌ to age verification.

@itsfoss one of the issue with this is, should a bad group if people like pedophiles, terrorist, scammers.. Use GrapheneOS. Is GrapheneOS ready to accept this?
I use GrapheneOS and getting worried about being completely open. But to what end.@VinCep73 People use cars to kidnap and do all sorts of bad stuff, do we have issues with cars? GrapheneOS is just a tool like cars.

Mate the actual government are worse than criminals at this point.
I feel like it doesn't matter.
Freedom or death.
And by death I mean theirs. -

Android-Based GrapheneOS Refuses Age Verification, May Exit Regions That Enforce It
The privacy-focused Android fork would rather lose market access than collect user data at setup.

@itsfoss Maybe that's why it's banned in the U.S.

Pretty sure that's France
There is literally an online shop that ships phones with graphene pre-installed to the U.S. -

@itsfoss How does this OS level age verification even works? You just set in OS "Yeah I'm 18+ years old" and you're on your merry way or do you need to somehow actually prove it with ID or shit? If it's just a toggle with no verification just as a tool for parents to use as parental control it's not really problematic, but I'm sure there's already abuse planned with it on corporate/government levels isn't it?

Thats the thing
Its all fucking stupid, it won't work.
We are either back to the 90s where you have a birthday slider to lie too or they try to push some chinese level bullshit and end up with a Nepal.But I guess if we are speaking of the american ones and not the brazil one the american ones seem more honor system (its still overreach though). Brazil is inept though its one of the great piracy countries, they will try to enforce it and then give up like they always do. As for the americans that shit will get torn up in court if amendments don't kill them before they are even born.

I use GrapheneOS and getting worried about being completely open. But to what end.@VinCep73 I have a friend that discovered GrapheneOS just as an OS that isn't controlled by friends of Trump. My friend doesn't even care about privacy.
GrapheneOS is becoming more popular every day. The association to bad people is slowly fading. Being open about using GrapheneOS makes it happen faster.

@itsfoss if needed, I think the users should verify it's age to the system admin (I know, tend to be the same person).

@itsfoss US lawmakers at their finest!
How they restrict kids using OS, but allow them to bear arms ?
How is it possible that a person can't drink until 21 yo, but can film porn movies above 18+ yo ?

does that mean users in the UK should download an image now in case it is blocked in future?
