But it's a very surface level prompt. Is it just me that has instinctively selected the "I'm over 18" button without thinking long before that was true?

They don't ask verification as far as I know. It's the US gov so you're correct to be cautious. I didn't try in a "private" tab.

    No no no, I had to open the downloaded 'PDF' to my device, then open it with a hex editor, to discover it was actually in HTML format, to request my age and ID first.

    The page never outright even loaded, I just discovered that because I know how to use a hex editor. The page never loaded properly in either format, neither PDF nor HTML.

    I figured it out, it's apparently a bug in the Jerboa for Lemmy app. Jerboa sees PDF and tries to open my default PDF viewer rather than my web browser Fennec.

    When I copy the link and paste it directly in Fennec, it works as expected, but when I tap the link in Jerboa, it's blindly trying to open it with a PDF app, which gives the Invalid Format error.

    A MaxWest tablet, stock Android 11, but never signed into Google. No Chrome here, I used to use Firefox, until they started adopting AI tech, so now I use the more privacy focused fork, Fennec.
