Supreme Court's ruling practically wipes out free speech for sex writing online

I'm genuinely curious. The parent buys the phone/laptop. And when little Timmy logs in to his phone the account should be in a family/group as a child account.

What's with the obsession with actually verifying identity? Just make a web API available to determine if the current user is configured as a child account. Why isn't that enough to gate-keep access to adult content?

Timmy's friend in school has parents who have no idea about family/child accounts. They just give him a phone and let him do whatever he wants.

Timmy's friend is really popular in school.

Timmy's friend has a big brother that lets him use his ID. There will always be ways to circumvent this. The only functional difference between a simple setting in the browser and requiring ID attestation is how much surveillance it allows the government to do.
