I'm not sure how take it down is related. It is unfortunate how broad the scope can be but in my opinion it's still less of a violation than being required to dox yourself to use services.

This is truly insane and it makes me glad to be in the US...for now at least. I believe at least one state is doing something similar...hope it stays confined to that one state...this is one of the most blantat privacy violations I've seen in a while.
EDIT: Great...looks like we have KOSA to worry about.
This tbh, age verification SHOULD be a parenting issue not a state mandated issue. If the state wants to make it an issue it should be on the parents to at least be a trusted party.
Probably also depends on what country you're coming in from. I have virtually no social media presence myself but when I came back to the US I didn't even have to speak to CBP, they had an automated facial scanning system and just required you to be holding your passport. This is as a citizen, I'm sure the process for foreigners is less lax.
But the Gemini app isn't installed, that's the weird part, so none of the recommendations listed in this article are possible.
Is this still a problem if you don't have the Gemini app but Gemini has replaced Google assistant on the phone? Because my phone has Gemini as the assistant but the app is not there, I even unhid system apps in settings and did a search
I'm assuming by this you mean the developers of JS /s
As someone who mostly avoids JavaScript, I don't see the IT in this image, I just see a bad language I avoid!
LOL, I've actually heard of it, but I have not played it. Ofc that game never even crossed my mind when writing my comment haha. I suppose choose your own adventure style books also fall into this category.
Even with 2D games that's basically impossible. Only time it could work is with turn based games and then...you end up with this post lol.
Or just use NAT64? That's the conventional way to do this. Yes a VPN works but it's a tunnel, NAT64 just maps the entire IPv4 internet into v6 space and clients just use native v6 to get out. It's easy to setup on a VPS and there are even public instances. https://nat64.net/
Hmmm, that's a hard one for me. They're both very bad but personally having to submit ID makes me less comfortable...that being said I wouldn't call government censorship a win either. Maybe the main reason I find ID to be more concerning isn't because of some objective reason but rather because it's in your face rather than being in the shadows and humans don't do well with threats they can't see. Ultimately I think you might be right and I'm not advocating for either...just saying that currently the US cyber laws make me feel less ICK... although that might be a very subjective viewpoint. I think the real take away is all western nations seem to be going down a kinda bad path but that also isn't new unfortunately.
