Reddit hires company to verify user age with selfie or photo of government ID.
Governments all around europe are so scared of people communicating.
This is more the Government pandering to the worst group of bastards - parents.
Nah, I’m a parent and don’t buy into this “think of the children” bullshit. Only the most gullible think that it’s a legitimate reason. It’s always been about govt surveillance.
I just teach my kids to not be total morons online, and clamp down on their internet activities myself. You know, like a parent should be doing.
Government allows children to be raped by church, regime removed and nepo baby owner class…
But they now expect the peasants to believe them on this 🤡
“For your safety…”
“For the children” is simple subterfuge.
