After reading about this on hacker news, I get why they do it. Its to make people upload identification documents, to get them prepped to authenticate for using the internet. Now the world makes sense again. I was wondering why they would do something positive. But now I get it.


America is already deciding almost everything about the internet, through owning the operating systems, the networks, big tech companies, Ai, and so on.
They could make a law that forces all major american websites to require a global auth cookie, that people can only get by doing age verification at some site.
I can’t really make sense of that. Do you understand that Lemmy instances are run by just some random people?
Yes of course. I meant that they are part of the social media thing, and they may also be required to implement age verification if things become bad.
