I fully agree. None of this should be required to operate a computer. We should focus on the parents that give their children free range of the internet without teaching them anything and the school ciriculum which is lacking in this department as well.

To me it feels like the lawmakers have some good intentions with this law, but it was rushed through so quickly that they forgot to ask themselves how this actually would be applied and who they are actually trying to protect.

Edit: oh. Also I just wanted to point out that outside of the title and abstract the law does not use the word verify/verification. It just says "indicate" which is way too vague.
