Watch me solve online age verification without ID leaks:
- Device and local login granted to kid by parent
- Kid does NOT have full admin access locally
- Parent has full admin access locally
- Parent sets an OS setting: Can view adult content; can view teen content
- OS makes 'age' flag available to web pages and apps
- If kid DOES have admin access, that's an internal family issue; not the government's concern.
- PROBLEM SOLVED
But that's not the actual goal of the laws… is it?
@levisan Change "forcing OS developers" to "suggesting to OS developers" and I agree.
In a perfect world parents can choose the hardware and OS that meets their needs.
The only thing that gets close to the level of awareness a parent needs for protecting their kid is to talk to them every day about what they do, until they don't need supervision anymore.
