Many might've seen the Australian ban of social media for <16 y.o with no idea of how to implement it. There have been mentions of "double blind age verification", but I can't find any information on it.

Out of curiosity, how would you implement this with privacy in mind if you really had to?

I seem to remember Leisure Suit Larry verified age using trivia questions that only older people would answer correctly. I know this because at 8 years old I guessed enough of them on my father's friends computer to play it.

    I talked to a friend of mine last week and they didn't know of the old PS/2 mouse/keyboard cable/sockets. They've seen it before, but it wasn't familiar to them. Nobody only having used USB devices will remember those.
