Those against website age verification argue that content blocking should happen at the OS level. For example, a parent could enable the built-in "child mode" on their child's smartphone or computer. As I understand it, that would be more effective, graceful, cheaper, free speechy, and private. To a degree, tech savvy parents (and people who block ads and other content) already do similar things with third party tools - i.e. it's feasible.

If you're being serious, I think you share a widely held misconception around what "racism" is. The Romani are an ethnic group and you're saying "we" hate them (you could just stop here as anything beyond this is just rationalisation), not because of their ethnic group, but because of criminality within that ethnic group. That doesn't really make sense, if you think about it.
Your parents and everyone around you is "sedentary, scrolling and alone", but we think banning ball game signage should help.
Everyone should have content filtering tools. I use Adguard services for filtering my own internet (adult, Reddit, YouTube, etc.). Surely, implimenting something similar at an OS or router level would have saved us decades of pointless bickering and provided us with an actual consumer benefit?
As long as no one gives them the idea that a hostile occupation is sustainable in perpetuity, we'll be fine.
Do product reviews count? At this point, even the idea of an authentic product review seems preposterous.
Edit: Is this more like an effect of enshitification?
Coca-Cola is still around. Doesn't mean I want to start drinking that piss again. Actually, I do, I really do.
We peaked at IRC. Those days were magical.
Surprise twist: He redirected all your Christian prayers to Waheguru and you're all now an additional cycle away from Mukti.
That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying governments could force MS, Google, Apple to implement content filtering tools at the OS level, that give users the choice to set up filtering however they want for themselves or their kids.
