Brazil is requiring OS level age verification by march 17th, 2026.
New York about to vote on a law that would “require all manufacturers of internet-enabled devices, operating systems, or application stores to conduct commercially reason-able and technically feasible age assurance for users at the point of device activation.”
In order to “incentivize” age verification, The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has announced that they will ignore COPPA violations for software performing age verification.
13 days 😂 Tell me you don’t know how software development works or how operating systems are developed without telling me.
Unless someone already has age verification ready to go and wanted to be a monopoly for a while.
