    To my understanding, it’s also Meta that is lobbying for this. Basically pushing the responsibility elsewhere to the operating system vendors

      But how would they know I have been truthful about my age? I mean I am never putting my real age when registering on websites.

        I guess they want this law to fall back on in case an underage individual is presented with mature/inappropriate content. Then they can just say that you lied about your age and that is not their fault.

          Yes, so pretty much they don’t want to be held responsible. And the government is bending over to comply with the tech bros.
