Yes, it is my post, and I am trying to find a reason why it won’t work. Sadly, without such a solution, it will be impossible to use many Internet services without having an Android/iOS.

Who fed you that line of crap?
Are you having trouble using many internet services without android/ios right now?
If not, why not stop pushing this mandatory age verification crap on us?
I got blocked from cloudflare for trying to download my dishwasher’s user manual from the manufacturer’s own website today. That was “suspicious behaviour” to them.
So yes, internet services are becoming impossible to use right now.
were you able to get the user manual on your android/ios device?
No, I had to use a different website and do a captcha every page on my computer.
My IP was banned from the manufacturer website, so all my devices didn’t work.
I don’t want it, but if it does exist, it should be open!
This sounds like OpenID with extra steps. A signed JWT could serve the same purpose without reinventing the wheel and inherit all privacy and scope controls out of the box. For example, a site can send a userid and challenge that I hash before authorising my identity provider to attach a signed age attestation to. Provider can’t see the hash contents and the site only gets to see the pre-verified age in the JWT and nothing else identifiable (could even be a regional yes/no of-age value or content flags).
All that said, you’d be hard pressed to find any company that wouldn’t immediately regect something that could not be collected, sold, or abused. The law was never about the children in the first place and they’re not about to have a change of heart on that any time soon.
