Dont forget what kicked this age verification in first place. Initially they wanted do age verification for porn, and only year later they moved into social media seeing there's wasn't huge pushback.

So even if this change doesn't affect you right now, but it will affect you later then it'll be too late to fight agaisnt.

It was funny here in Australia, they did it the other way. They banned social media for under 16 but didn't get around to porn until a few months later.
I mean, even if more things on the internet get restriced it wouldnt affect me since Im not a minor.
