Maybe, but that doesn't matter since automated age verification doesn't work. Kids always figure out ways to bypass it, and it snares unlucky adults all the time.

    Carding as in credit card theft? Or carding as in a bouncer checking someone's ID at the door?

    The latter, someone asking to see your id to verify that you're over 18

    Except this digital bouncer can memorize every ID it sees. It can reproduce them perfectly for someone else to see. In fact, there's no realistic way for this bouncer to ever forget an ID it has seen.
