Neat. Is the author of that piece of engineering known? What subcontractor company made this?

The stated goal of age verification is safety, I have only seen evidence that complying will make everyone using the internet less safe.

This is the perfect example of how government is the least effective way to do most things.

Government lacks the constraints and risk aversion that smaller groups have - after all it can just pass new laws justifying it's poor choices, and government is largely immune to recrimination or liability.

(Also, fuck this age verification bullshit, of course).

I have been wanting to get into this shit for years but have never even begun, save for the tryhackme invitation generator.

Maybe I should... Hollywood hacking magic is childsplay compared to the real thing.
