The alternative is people actually fucking parenting and not making the internet a dystopian hellscape.

Again, we can hope for whatever. But this is going to happen. So the question becomes what the best version is. I see no better option than on-device, encrypted age verification tokens

There's no way on-device options would work with FOSS operating systems, so if it does happen I'm SOL anyways, so wtf do I care? I'm not going back to corpo slop. If the people work together we can defeat shit like this before it happens, so why the defeatism?
