That should be regulated by parents. If the government does it it means needing a digital id

Not that the government would ever do this, but it is technically feasible for them to distribute anonymous digital IDs that verify age without allowing the user to be tracked or identified.
Technically feasible? yes. But why would the intelligence/military blob do things this way?

Haven't they proved over and over that they will use any opportunity to spy on as much people as possible?

Once the government is issuing digital IDs to grant access to speech you can split that hair however you want I think it's a pretty uncomfortable idea for a lot of people.
