The government knows who you are. They know your age, your address and know you exist (probably).
You go to a site that requires ages verification. You say:please verify me with the government portal. You go to that portal to get a temporary id code to give to the site. The website says to the gov portal give me the name and age of the user with this temp ID. You approve that access. Portal sends age (or an is over 16/18/21 etc flag) to the site.
- Gov portal doesn’t need to know who the site is.
- You don’t provide a unique ID to the website, just a temporary one.
- as if codes are temporary, you must have access to the id/login now, not just at some point
- Site only gets the data you approve/it requested,.not everything.
The process can do with some streamlining, but should work in practice?










Even splatted on the back of it?
