EU implementation of age verification maybe would not only have all the bad ipacts of age scans but wooorse… (yes you'd maybe think how can it get worse? Or you think well age limits are not bad… in any case…)
They will require face scans! For really no real benefit!

CW: age attestation, California AB1043
Suppose an operating system doesn't issue signals for adult lusers who aren't 'Users' as defined by AB1043 (that is, defining adult lusers to be eighteen years or older).
Further suppose that the California Attorney General issues an injunction against the OS providers as per the law text despite no 'User' being harmed.
Does the Attorney General have legal standing in court to enforce this injunction in the absence of any harmed party?

Sad day.

"I pulled the actual bill text from 5 state age verification laws. They're copy-pasted from two templates. Meta is funding one to dodge ~$50B in COPPA fines — and the other one covers Linux."

#Colorado is running a bill this session, titled SB26-051 (leg.colorado.gov/bills/SB26-051), which will require "general computing platforms" (laptops and phones) to build a form of locally-stored age attestation into the onboarding process for a new user on the device. The data about the user would then be categorized into one of three age brackets, stored locally, and then passed to various apps/platforms/social media at registration time.
In the bill's committee hearing last week, I and several other people told the bill sponsors that we understand the problem you're trying to solve, but that this is a terrible way to solve it. Many speakers offered to help advise the bill authors on implementing a less fragile, more secure, less susceptible system, but they wouldn't budge. Not a single committee member voted no on a motion to advance the bill to the "committee of the whole" - i.e., the full legislature for a final vote.
The only hope now is for people to reach out to legislators to ask them to vote no on the final bill draft. Otherwise, we're going to get stuck with a really dumb bill that gets signed into law on a "but...think of the children!" appeal, with no hope of being implemented properly.
It's notable that this Apple system would not satisfy the requirements the bill sets up.
