I think it actually is a radical totalitarian demand, if the only accepted form of age verification is government ID scans or selfie face capture. People should have a right to serve content without having to deal with the SPII of their clients.

That will ask for a government ID scan or selfie face capture. It solves the company-side problem only.

How do they perform age checks?
