Stupid take.

The issue is obviously not with adults needing to click a drop-down.

Some of the main issues with this legislation are:

1) Makes it much easier for predators of all kinds to identify and target children on their computers

2) Impossible to implement (i.e., servers don't have a person)

3) The infrastructure this bill introduces will be used by the state and corporations to destroy our last vestiges of privacy and anonymity

The age bracket dropdown will not be used to destroy your last vestige of privacy and anonymity.
It's a slippery slope, my friend. Take care now.
