There's no problem, so we don't need one. We got by just fine without age verification on the internet for decades

    I'm not sure if we are doing that fine. The thing about the decades is there wasn't really a web for kids to browse. Nowadays it's different. But still, I agree with you. We should keep responsibility to the parents as long as possible. But I really don't think my friend's daughter should be browsing TikTok at her age.

    (Which is my friend's task, not mine or that of some pedo in government)
