I'm just waiting for all UK users to be banned from anything that isn't Facebook or X. It's absolutely ridiculous and a huge win for big tech as it locks us in to their platforms and their platforms only. Those of us with a bit of tech knowledge will work around it but it's infuriating.
Currently Twitter is doing the bare minimum by simply allowing UK users to bypass the age-checks by setting their location to another country.
The equivalent of a pop-up asking you if you’re 18 or older.
Back in the day, I was 18 for like five years.
half the internet is 45 years old this year.
