   @neil Wow, that is crazy. Is that seriously going to be an acceptable way to judge age?

   I mean, the fact I have used the same email address since at least 2003 is great for proving I am over 18.

   The fact I use a new unique email address for everything to which I sign up is great for proving I am not 1 day old.

   If forced to use my "usual" email address to access a service, that is not "privacy respecting", is it!

     @revk @neil Also maybe having an address like jack1996@ would pass as an old address.
     Hopefully I'll never have to do this, even though I have a catchall.

     @lanodan @neil @revk No they are looking at leaks from other services that you have signed up for previously with the same address. It's dumb shit. They probably have a haveibeenpwned account.

     @nf3xn @neil @revk Well makes sense but well definitely can have your email leaked while you're a minor.
