To be clear, I’m not advocating for online age verification. I’m very much against it in any form. I’m just curious from a technical standpoint if it’s possible somehow to construct an accurate age verification system that doesn’t compromise a user’s privacy? i.e., it doesn’t expose the person’s identity to anyone nor leaves behind a paper trail that can be traced to that person?
Bad terminology choice, I meant the cert issuer. Need to revise the language later. I was thinking of it in terms of who verifies your IRL identity. The issuer can only issue the cert after you met them and they checked your documentation, etc
In any system there has to be some source of truth to base the data on. Otherwise people can claim anything .
