93k may seem a lot, but I’m on holiday in EU right now and the closest hotspot is 40 minutes away. Still impressive initiative, I hope it gets more coverage.

I hope my country will follow soon.

This is different. It’s a EU gov app that gives your website a zero-knowledge proof of age. Basically the only info they get is a “yes” or maybe the age itself. This is much better than what you describe, but I’m not familiar with the way the UK system works today.

I found this: The EU launches an online age verification app. Pilot project in five Member States (including Italy)

That’s a breaking change!

Any person that can spot disinformation and other types of hostile journalism will tell you the same.

RT is a shit source.
