How could/would/should the Fediverse do age verification if required in the EU? (lemmy.world)

The question is prompted by the age verification app that the EU has just presented.

Some EU countries want to ban social media for young people. If that were to happen, what then?

Everyone can be an Attestation Provider,

Maybe everyone can apply to become one, but there will be some certification process. Anything else would defeat the purpose. So you have the question of how much that would cost and who pays for that.

On a technical level, it should be possible to implement support for the app.
