@sun @feld @whiteline @ageha age attestation is trivial, it's called 'paying with a credit card' -

This can all be controlled by the card processor. You can choose a ton of different restrictions to put on the transaction like eliminating gift/prepaid cards, requiring name and address matching, etc.lainy likes this. -

@lain @feld @sun @whiteline @ageha That doesn't actually work very well, lots of banks give authorized users the same numbers and just swap the name on the printed card, debit can be run as credit, and "gift" credit cards will authenticate with any name at all. -

@feld @Zettour @sun @whiteline @ageha it can't be simultaneously true that those evil companies know literally everythning about you but ALSO they can't know if you're 18. feld likes this. -

@lain @Zettour @sun @whiteline @ageha it's so true, they absolutely have enough data harvested from public sources they cross reference with everything else about you.
So they know. But how they know is probably not proof enough for the government to be happy.
This whole problem sucks I hate where the internet is going -

@lain @feld @Zettour @whiteline @ageha the last time I did a gift credit card I had to put in a ton of personal information -

@sun @feld @Zettour @whiteline @ageha i mean, every single time i buy alcohol my age gets checked, it's the smae in most countries. this is an everyday transaction and it's not complicated or expensive or hard to do. there is no issue here.
