Taken from the readme of the app on github:
The current release provides only basic functionality, with several key features to be introduced in future versions, including:
App and device verification based on Google Play Integrity API and Apple App Attestation
Additional issuance methods beyond the currently implemented eID based method.
These planned features align with the requirements and methods described in the Age Verification Profile.
There is an issue opened to remove this as it’s basically telling us that to verify our age in the EU an American corporation has the last word, making it not only a privacy nightmare but a de-facto monopoly on the phone market that will leave out of the verification checks even the fairphone (european) with /e/os.
Those services can either be blocked outright or use the parental controls provided by those services. None of this justifies big brother style government over reach. Additionally to me, the kids you need to protect are the really young ones. Teens ideally shouldn’t be browsing adult content but it’s far less damaging to them than young kids. And young kids don’t need steam or unrestricted Netflix etc. They’re also far less skilled at bypassing this stuff.
So, parental controls now how much exactly if the person using it is the patent?
And again, you didn’t read anything about the EUID project. I know this because the data protection rules for the EUID are fucking insane. The reason why the project in question (age verification) exists, so user can verify their age WITHOUT providing any details about who they are to online services
It is unbelievable, no glue about what this piece of software is who wrote it, for what, what are the legal grounds, but spitting bullshit, yes nice!
I will write a more detailed post about the whole issue, where things must be changed, how, and the impact and false assumptions.
But I will end this conversation here, because it just makes no sense. You lack the knowledge to provide anything useful to such a discussion
