Like these?

[coldclimate@hachyderm.io]

@vowe the kids are alright

[dany@hsnl.social]

@vowe Haha, drawing on mustaches, inventive but that will surely never work!

"One mother said: “I did catch my son using an eyebrow pencil to draw a moustache on his face, and it verified him as 15 years old.""

Oh.... Nevermind.

@vowe this timeline is so unserious

[dckim@mastodon.social]

@vowe just hopefully the children don't use permanent markers.

[bewitchedmind@mastodon.social]

@vowe So that's why Ben G. Thomas grew a moustache.

[riggbeck@mastodon.social]

@vowe

These young people give me hope for the future.

[glowl@chaos.social]

@Dany @vowe i wonder if they imply the kid is actually younger than 13 by talking about "children" and not "teens"?

[d1@autistics.life]

@vowe it's an idea so crazy it night just work

[mediocreman@mastodon.social]

@vowe
If that is all it takes to get passed this system, it is a bit useless.

[frutigeraero00@mastodon.social]

@vowe This is hilarous but, age verificiation just verifies face, not age birth? Or it doesnt connect to an actual gov database?

So, can you just make a fake id and it would work?

[pedro_mateus@mas.to]

@vowe

Time to add age verification to the sale of sharpies!

[gimulnautti@mastodon.green]

@vowe It was never about #ageverification!

It was about government having become impotent to regulate big tech. It was about the #neoliberal #ideology having invaded every nook & cranny of our lives. Even children have to serve the interests of shareholders in #BigTech companies, who won’t be held accountable for making their products safe for children.

Instead we hand over what remains of our #privacy to generate even more money & power for shareholders, disguised as care.. 🤮

@vowe Just a third? Those are rookie numbers.

[nf3xn@mastodon.social]

@gimulnautti @vowe So I had a thought and wondered what if I refused age verification? "Cannot access this site? Ok then."

Could my internet experience actually improve?

Or will the fascists still manage to inject MASS DEPORTATIONS narratives in front of our kids?

Who is going to hold these sites to account if they have verified age but still publish things that kids ought not see?

[gyroplast@furry.engineer]

@vowe

Next up, three kids stacked in a trenchcoat, and Groucho glasses are making a comeback?

Poor satirists, getting sidelined hard by reality every day.

[rhelune@todon.eu]

@mynameistillian @vowe This timeline is tragicomic.

[thefish@mastodon.social]

@vowe Image you build an million euro software and children hack you with a pencil

[sassinake@mastodon.social]

@vowe

So, girls, paint a few streaks of hair, white, or draw some wrinkles.

[leonardof@bertha.social]

@vowe I'm shocked it worked
