The Entertainment Software Ratings Board (ESRB) is debunking recent reports that imply the company wants to use facial recognition tech for children, adding that it has no intention of storing or using "selfies" of its users.
The parent may then be asked to consent to a scan of their face using a front-facing camera, which is then used to “accurately estimate the parent’s age.”
the only piece of information that is communicated to the company requesting [Verifiable Parental Consent] is a ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ determination as to whether the person is over the age of 25.
So that’s settled, people under the age of 25 can no longer have children.
This sounds so dystopian and completely unnecessary. What’s the point of a facial age estimate if you are asking them to put their age or DOB in to begin with? It’s pointless.

Agreed.
Probably to make it harder to lie.
