How could/would/should the Fediverse do age verification if required in the EU? (lemmy.world)

The question is prompted by the age verification app that the EU has just presented.

Some EU countries want to ban social media for young people. If that were to happen, what then?

We shouldn't go down without a fight, out plan A must be to prevent dystopia. And you are right that asking "what if"s can encourage a feeling of defeatism by distracting from plan A, however it's generally not bad to think about a plan B ahead of time.
