As the age verification technology would forcibly deanonymise all EU users, opening a huge new vein of behavioural surveillance data to the zuckerbots.

I've been thinking about it and here's my proposal:
- total ban on hosting/streaming videos with kids below 16. Anyone uploading content with kids is immediately banned. Platforms hosting content with kids are prosecuted.
- treat mobile phones like cigarettes. Parents giving phones to children < 16 are fined. If you want to track your kid get him a smart watch.
Who's with me?

Of course they would. Not only would they get their hands on data users fully voluntarily give them by using their platform, but they'd get their hands on verified IDs and quite reliable family tie information. The potential loss of users is definately worth it for them (from their perspective).

In my opinion we would need an EU service that does the verification while sharing as little information as possible with facebooks services.
I think the EU service should only send back, if the person is allowed to use Facebook. A single yes or no. Which could mean both, that the person is either old enough or has their parents consent.
