Age checks in Australia aren't just for kids anymore. Google and Bing now check adults too, so know what you're handing over before you say yes. #AgeVerification #Privacy #Australia #DigitalID #OnlineSafety #DataPrivacy #Biometrics
India's Supreme Court wants to know why the government stayed silent on age checks at liquor shops. The real question is whether a check can say old enough and keep nothing else about you. #AgeVerification #Privacy #DigitalIdentity #India #SupremeCou
EU #KidsWallet is supposed to be the cornerstone of #ageverification mandates, to be put into effect on 1/1/2027. From then on, even logging in to a laptop would require it, otherwise it will be a dumb "brick". It was never about protecting kids. https://t.co/ASYk6NI5tX

"AI age verification" draws ~660 searches a month — buyers want a lighter first step than an ID upload. Facial age estimation clears the clear-cut cases fast; document checks handle the edge cases. Make sure your vendor pairs it with liveness and fraud detection. #AgeVerification
Parental controls protect the child. Identity checks identify the adult. Only one of those needs a database, and the ban’s enforcement needs the second. How adults will be checked still isn’t decided. Ofcom reports at the end of October.

A “social media ban for children” ultimately risks ID checks for all of us before we can speak online
Parents already have tools to protect their children. Children do not buy smartphones for themselves
There is nothing safe about a society where ordinary people must be identified, monitored, and recorded simply to participate
@andyburnham @lisanandy you have NO MANDATE for this "ban" and ushering us all towards ID checks to get online

The type-in-your-birthday box is on its way out. Age verification and parental consent rules could soon ask parents for an ID or a face scan before a kid gets an account. Know what is being asked before you say yes. #AgeVerification #ParentingTips #O
Türkiye’s age-verification rules take effect on 1 Nov 2026: no social-network service for under-15s, safeguards for ages 15–17, an e-Government token and a 31 Mar 2027 deadline for existing accounts.

#AgeVerification #DigitalRegulation
Ursula von der Leyen has confirmed that everyone in the EU will need to use the EU's app for identity authentication before being able to access or post on social media websites.
🇪🇺 As an expert in online child safety, I am here to expose the misinformation and misdirection in von der Leyen's statements.
Today von der Leyen said:
"This is not about whether children can access social media, it is about whether social media can access our children".
💡The first part is true. This isn't about children. It's about surveillance and combating political dissent. A state that can't control its own citizens is more dangerous than a state rife with criminals. The second part is a PR soundbite that politicians are using like a campaign slogan straight out of 1984.
🇪🇺"The question is no longer if children face risks online, but what can we do to give children a safer start online".
💡No. You can't give children a "safer start" online any more than you can offline. In the offline world, the government doesn't enforce curfews or ban children from entering liquor stores, bars or restaurants. That's a parent's responsibility. The digital world should be no different.
🇪🇺"The age verification app is one of the tools to get it done".
💡This is a contradiction because she also said "It won't be foolproof".
🇪🇺"It's easy to use, it is privacy preserving and it is open source".
💡The app was compromised as soon as it was released. "Privacy-preserving" age verification is an oxymoron. You can't verify a person's age without verifying their identity. Where or how that age is shared afterwards is irrelevant.
🇪🇺"This is basically about putting back the power into the hands of parents".
💡More from 1984. The EU is doing the opposite. Parents are having their authority stripped by politicians who think they know better. Many parents are capable and unaffected by peer pressure, and they know how to use parental controls to block any app classified as 13+. Some teens are safe, their parents trust them, and the state has no business overruling that trust.
🇪🇺"We don't give our children keys to the car before they have their licence"
💡Comparing an app to a car is a false equivalence used to justify mass surveillance. Governments don't decide when a young person is ready for car keys, guardians do.
💡Forcing every adult and child into a biometric checkpoint just to use an app or website is not licensing drivers. It's the state seizing everyone's keys, locking the garage, and forcing every driver to ask a private company for permission to take a drive.
💡 This is a gross, unethical overreach that strips authority from parents while imposing state sanctioned identity verification on every adult who doesn't even have a child.
💡Additionally, people who pass a test, obtain a licence and drive a car aren't forced to use an app to constantly authenticate their suitability to drive.
🇪🇺"We do not let them buy alcohol until they are legally allowed"
💡False equivalence. We don't force every person to show ID at a shopping mall entrance just because a few people might buy alcohol with a meal at a restaurant. Some parents are okay with their 12 year-old going to the mall with friends while others aren't. Either way, it's their choice. Whatever irresponsible decisions some parents might make, every adult in the country shouldn't be forced to pay the price.
🇪🇺"It won't be foolproof"
💡This is all the proof we need to show that the EU and every government know that banning social media for teens won't protect them. When pressed by journalists about VPNs being used to circumvent a ban, politicians always state the ban isn't a silver bullet and will take time. The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan went as far as to say "we know it's not the solution".
💡Either age verification works, or it doesn't. As a technical expert in this space, I can tell you there are no additional steps to take and no progress to be made. Either the approach does what it is supposed to do, or it's not fit for purpose. If they claim a bulletproof solution is coming, it can only mean one thing. They intend to ban or restrict VPNs to people who verify their identity.
🇪🇺"It will take time to invite the cultural change that is already taking shape in our society, just as it took time to outlaw drink driving, just as it took time to use seatbelts in the cars. Great change never happens overnight, but when it comes to our safety it is always worth it".
💡Comparing a social media ban and age verification to seatbelts is a completely broken analogy. Seatbelts are a safety feature that protects children while allowing them to travel in a car. A ban doesn't give kids a seatbelt. It kicks them out of the car entirely.
💡Instead of supporting parents who want to guide their own children through the digital world, this heavy-handed law strips away parental authority by banning the apps and websites that many parents are perfectly fine with and actively monitor.
💡Furthermore, enforcing these bans requires biometric age verification, which means forcing millions of adult citizens to scan their IDs, faces or credit cards just to browse the internet. That isn't a common-sense traffic law.
💡It's a digital checkpoint on every street. True safety means teaching kids how to navigate the digital world safely with real guardrails and parental guidance, not burning down digital spaces for everyone under the guise of protection.
🇪🇺☠️ The EU wants to ban teens from social media so every person is forced to verify their identity before they can read, share or post anything online. In their words, this is to protect children from dangerous content.
🇪🇺☠️ The EU wants to enforce "Chat Control" so every app has to monitor everything people say privately inside it, including apps with end-to-end encryption. In their words, this is to protect children from dangerous criminals.
💡Where this ends
🇪🇺 "If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face - forever".
George Orwell, 1984.
"No age verification" pulls ~810 searches a month. That's visitor demand drifting toward sites with no gate at all. If your check is slow or clunky, you're nudging people to the unregulated corner of the web. Make the compliant path the easy path. #AgeVerification #Compliance
Build vs. buy for age verification: building means owning liveness, fraud detection, ID coverage and a legal matrix that shifts by jurisdiction. Buying means a few lines of SDK. "Age verification API" carries an $8.82 CPC — operators choose speed. #AgeVerification #BuildVsBuy

Your kid can beat the birthday box in four seconds, so Europe is weighing an age check at the app store itself. That would make your family phone account the gatekeeper, and the data it asks for matters. #AgeVerification #OnlinePrivacy #ParentingTips
Your teen's social media account could get locked until your family proves an age. Decide now what personal data you're willing to hand over, before the prompt appears. #AgeVerification #OnlinePrivacy #ParentingTips #KidsOnline #SocialMedia #DigitalS
