SUMMARY - RFC 9998: Report from the IAB/W3C Workshop on Age-Based Restrictions on Content Access - four functional roles, a shared vocabulary, and why no single method works for everyone.
https://isoclive.substack.com/p/rfc9998

The IAB has now taken the position the report itself withheld: device-based age assurance is the most promising route at current maturity, and hasty mandates risk ossifying worse designs.

There are a narrow but valid set of use cases where using age estimation tech makes sense. In its current state of efficacy, it should *only* be used as an indicative signal, and never for a decision. Especially when it can mean life or death.
