the main probrem isn't really what data is used for verification, but what data is made unavailable without it. if some conservative asshole decides that resources on sexual health (or alternate sexualities) are pornographic, then that information is effectively gone for everyone under 18 or without an account.

    Well, good luck to the conservatives, because if that happens little (or not so little) Timmy will bike to their nearest friend and ask them. That's how urban legends used to bk propagated

    They've already decided so. It is all in Project 2025: queerness and sex-ed are considered pornographic. And platforms have been preemptively demonetizing and censoring info for similar topics (abortion and sex-workers resources also) for years.
