Those terms of service have been repeatedly been found completely unenforceable in court.
They'll pass a law to change that and then enact child marriages once more. I don't know off the top of my head but that might be the case in Kentucky already.
I really want the family to win in this case but my fear is that if they were to that it would only push age verification laws further.
Come check out !kentucky@lemmy.world ill cross post to there
It should be impossible to waive your rights via TOS agreements for anyone.
