To be clear, I’m not advocating for online age verification. I’m very much against it in any form. I’m just curious from a technical standpoint if it’s possible somehow to construct an accurate age verification system that doesn’t compromise a user’s privacy? i.e., it doesn’t expose the person’s identity to anyone nor leaves behind a paper trail that can be traced to that person?


Hey benign and honorable govt!
Please tell the website “kill-your-govt .net” that I am old enough to join the revolution!!!

edit: if this was pasted in both directions AND we trust that there is no identifying information in either ‘secret’ message, might work. Normies will not like the ctrl-c/ctrl-v workflow though.
