At this rate of government espionage, it's closer to reality than ever.

Sure, the point of the new age verification rules in the UK were great; to keep children out. But it's spreading to be much more, and doing much unnecessary beyond just making it harder for kids; they even went as far to the proposed California bill that makes it as you can't install any app, even traditional APK apps, anymore without giving up your ID. Which can backfirebas the government can associate your HWID, IP, and everything else to your personal identity details.

im not sure what/where youre talking about but any Authoritarian Govt should be viewed with suspicion.

im still waiting for the "Dont Tread on Me" folk to do *something*
The powers that be always want more control of their cattle. "Think of the children" or "for your own safety" are just relatively easy means to get it. Cyber criminals will have a field day, and perhaps if enough people get screwed they will dial back some of the policies for a while.
