This is why age verification cannot be implemented by the vested interests. Rollout in Australia involved making the laws, but leaving the implementation up to the vested interests, and is a mess because of it. A privacy nightmare uploading government documentation to strangers, and companies just just punting responsibility to a designated fall guy ('3rd party trusted verification service'). And most of them don't want to implement things this way, because they don't want to be the next company taking a hit in the stock market because of a public data breach, but have no choice. When governments and societies want age verification, they need to actually take responsibility for it. Which seems to be what the EU is trying to do.
