404 Media previously reported kids said they were using photos of Trump and G-Man from Half Life to bypass the age verification software in the popular VR game Gorilla Tag. That game uses the service k–ID, which is the same as what Discord is using.

The companies get to fulfill their legal obligation, and the kids who can figure it out unlock the reward off a censored community. No one’s IDs are compromised in the process.

Win / win?

Stupid people will still be either censored or get their info leaked, and we have to live in a society with them.
