The idea is very likely sovereignty rather than just an alternative. Overheid.nl is a government website.

Oh, no. People will rise up eventually. It's just a shame that most people turn out to be olympic athletes in mental gymnastics and delay the realization to the next generation(s).

It's not implying any causality, it's just denouncing hypocrisy.

There is no hypocrisy in dreaming to move to some other country as long as you're not trying to stop others from achieving that same dream.

Wow, I wasn't expecting so many conspiracy theorists on the leftish side of the political spectrum. That's concerning.

Doesn't this mean that Vance would need to approve it as well?

With an IP55 rating, I would assume it can resist a drop in water. As long as you don't stare at it for multiple minutes and do get it out asap.

Honestly, I'd rather see official governmental third parties that handle ID verification and guarantee to discord and any service needing age verification that the user is over the required age. Not comfortable with sharing any sort of verifying data with private companies, even less american companies. I have to for some stuff, but... Not liking it one bit.

There is already a few countries here in Europe with an official governmental identity verification system, and I'm pretty sure age verification can be done through them. I think the EU is also working on a system covering the entirety of Europe, but not certain.

No, that's if you use their hosted service. It's free to self-host.

I honestly don't understand why it's not already the norm. We've got plenty of great providers in Europe.
