   Just updated my iPad. It wanted me to take a photo of a credit card. I did not let it. It then told me I might not be able to access certain things. The future is fucking shit.

     @joeress I got an email from Google recently saying they'd switched off/on certain things in my account because they couldn't confirm that I was "an adult" (things like setting on safe search, etc.). Thing is, I've had that Google account for about 20 years now ... 🙄

     Instead of going through their age verification bs routine I logged into my Google account and switched off/on the things they'd changed. Seems to have worked.
