    Please don't spread misinformation.

    Under 16's can still access websites like YouTube and Google but will not be able to interact (i.e liking videos) and comment on content. They will still be able to view videos and publicly shared content.

    And yet in your own article it can be quoted:

    "Search engines will not be required to implement age assurance measures for users who are not logged in to their services, according to the new rules."

    So I fail to see how you will be unable to use Google.

    You will eventually want to access a page or service and will be asked to upload an id and or scan your face to make sure it matches. I for one do not want to have to submit my private information in order to use the internet.

    Google cracks the shits if you use a vpn, you think they will accept users logging out en masse?

    A few things. Firstly, I don't know how VPN usage has come into this discussion as I haven't made mention of VPN usage. Secondly, I've just not had the same experience. I use a VPN for all my devices and have never had a single issue using Google and it's services both with and without an account so it could be an issue on your end.
