How does mandating every OS to have a parental controls API lead to wholesale suppression of speech? Will they mandate it to always be set to the most restrictive setting?

this isn't "parental controls" this is a mandate to verify your age and subsequently identity to an external third party. can't you see how this is a slippery slop to deannonymizing the internet and being able to restrict access for reason that won't be revealed until later?
