Why? Isn't your age verified when you renew your drivers license? Purchase something on Amazon?
When I was a kid, child programming and commercials were heavily scrutinized. Now any kid can access porn, violence, and scams on the internet. That's a blight. Not age verification.
As a kid, you never found a stack of porno magazines in the woods did you?

Before Internet they used paper.
That’s the job of parents. No exceptions. OP is right, it needs to be outlawed.
I don’t understand, did broadcast TV or cable do age verification? Surely kids could watch content that was for adults very easily.
