It's ironic that the EFF proposes its own set of severe restrictions as the better alternative to age verification laws. How about not restricting the internet at all?

Which severe restrictions do you mean? The linked article talks mostly about gdpr-like privacy protection stuff, no?

Severe restrictions? Seriously?

Perhaps if you are a big tech corporation, considering that the EFF is an advocate group for digital rights and consumer protection policies.

How about not restricting the internet at all?

No. Every internet user should agree that some types of content should absolutely be prevented from appearing in public pages.
