    Facial Estimation shouldnt be an option. It should be government ID or parents ID thats it.

      More like just a date field that you input manually if there must be an age check. Fuck scanning my ID or my face

          That’s the point. Why does a video game need anything more than that? Who’s responsibility is it to make sure a gamer is of age or mature enough for a certain game? What arbitrary system is in place to even label a game as needing verification?

          Why would you need to prove anything simply to use the device? Fuck all that.

            Ohh you’re entirely against the concept of age verification. I dont care about that I am just commenting on the age verification method.

              I am entirely against it too. Here is my solution

              Shit comes in kids mode by default to unlock you use a 1 doller euro etc payment on a credit card

              There. Fixed now its no longer fucking with my privacy and lazy shithead parents can’t complain about child safety because they unlocked it

                Sounds like you arent against the concept of age verification and just have issue with the method. I am in the same boat.

                  Yes and no

                  I would like it to just not exists.

                  But if they truly can’t be parents then I don’t want my internet experience ruined by their incompetence

              We can’t get any kind of gun registration and safer schools, but you’re ok with this bullshit invasion of privacy? Once they get firearms under control, I’ll be more open to ID verifications. Until then, they’re just blowing smoke up your ass. It’s a facade to get your info under the guise of “safety”. Our politicians can go fuck themselves.

              If you want, I can just step on your neck with my boots, if you can’t get enough of the government doing it for you. I won’t even make you pay me for it

            Because parents want a lazy way to control their childrens access to age restricted content.
