A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

How would they implement such a law?
The same way Australia is doing it, a big fine for companies that don't comply and add an age verification process to sites.
Will it work 100%? No
Will it work enough? Probably
So people would have to provide an ID to use social media? That seems like a privacy nightmare.
