Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for privacy. But between setting up the birthdate when creating my children’s local account on their computers, and having to send a copy of their ID to every platform under the sun, I’d easily chose the former.
I’d even agree to a simple protocol (HTTP X-Over-18 / X-Over-21 headers?) to that.


Yet, with the way the California bill is written, so long as that data was collected at account creation, it would be adaquate.
Sure. For now. But in any case, aren’t they legally viable if someone complains?
