A company contracted by the government to assess technologies for verifying the ages of online users says it can be done privately, robustly and effectively.
‘Age verification’ systems - where a person’s ID is submitted - will not work.
Kids will find a way around them.
ID verification systems are a privacy nightmare and something only a dictatorship would implement.
Device/OS/platform ‘age restriction’ features are workable, but Labor is too incompetent to liaise with the EU to implement them.
It is for parents to supervise and control their kids’ devices, NOT for everyone else to have to provide ID just to access social media.
