When I was 8, I remember being bored and curious and touching a lot of parents stuff… phones… wallets… legal documents…
Most parents don’t put their stuff in safes…
Like… THE WALLET IS RIGHT THERE… I COULD JUST GRAB IT!
If they had age verification stuff back then… I could’ve just… quickly snap a pic of their ID and just YOLO it…
I think their motivations do matter. In part because they’re the motivations of the general public in support of this, so it is those opinions that need to be swayed.
The strategy is completely different if this came about due to payoffs by big tech versus if it has real grassroots support!
