When I saw that Discord will allow people to upload a selfie of themselves and have Discord try and analyze their age without the need to upload a government ID, I realized that nothing will change.
People will think that it is a resonable compromise, and they have so much stuff on Discord that they will just keep going.
Er... Allow or force?
You can still use Discord in teenager mode....
Also you have the option to submit your government ID instead.
So while saying "force" is too harsh, I will accept saying "coerce"....
You're right. That's a much better way to say than "force."
