> We as a society need to do something about the unprecedented levels of porn addiction in today's youth. "Enter your date of birth" prompts are performative and do nothing.
I agree, however show your ID is just a "Enter your date of birth" prompt with obfuscation.
Buying alcohol is physical and therefore has some advantages, for example you can be sure that your ID is not copied/sold as you are there and get it back.
In another comment the idea was presented to make a "I am adult" card you can buy (physical like the alcohol). I think that would work a lot better than upload your government id and face to random app/website.
Maybe I'm old school but I was always told "don't make a copy of your ID" by the government, a photo was included in that definition.
