All this to let you do stuff you were allowed to do anyway.
The problem is handing kids admin level access on a device with full unfiltered access to several communication networks. You do not fix that by demoting everyone's access.
We need better supervision which demands better parental controls which demands better content filtering which demands better content classification.
So fix the root. Legally mandate a standardized protocol for self reporting the content rating of resources.
> 1. Most of the dollar costs of making it all happen will be paid by the people who actually need/use the feature.
> 2. No toxic Orwellian panopticon.
> 3. Key enforcement falls into a realm non-technical parents can actually observe and act upon: What device is little Timmy holding?
> 4. Every site in the world will not need a monthly update to handle Elbonia's rite of manhood on the 17th lunar year to make it permitted to see bare ankles. Instead, parents of that region/religion can download their own damn plugin.
The person gets to see what information the service is asking for and can approve or deny. This'll likely end up being the future of how citizens access government services online.
To access government service we have something different. Here in Austria it's called ID Austria and you sign with an app when you try to access government services, but also others like health insurance etc.
Sure, it usually won't be prosecuted... Until you upset the wrong person and they're looking for a crime you did...
Part 1: misrepresentation of fact
Part 2: harm or loss due to that misrepresentation
You must prove both.

- Misrepresents a material (non-trivial) fact in order to obtain action or forbearance by another person
- The other person relies upon the misrepresentation
- The other person *suffers injury* as a result of the act or forbearance taken in reliance upon the misrepresentation.
- Recovery of damages in the amount of the *difference between the value of the property* had it been as represented and its actual value
- Out-of-pocket loss, which allows for the recovery of damages in the amount of the *difference between the value of what was given and the value of what was received*.
18 U.S.C. § 1343
(...)'any scheme or artifice to defraud, or for obtaining money or property by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises'(...)
I think that is exactly backwards. Many of the companies integrating with KYC/AML providers (such as my company) definitely don't want to be dealing in ids, just like most companies don't want to be dealing in storing credit card numbers (and the compliance that goes along with it). Its why Stripe exists, and its why ID verification companies exist.
like if you could be issued an E-id that could perform a local signature/challenge-response that allowed the site to confirm an age bracket (like 12 or below,13-17,18-20, 21+), assert the entity that issued the id but not assert a stable identifier (not even pairwise) and not pass any data between other parties.
Obviously not foolproof, credentials can be stolen (same in your scenario) but the site doesn't need to care, they should be legally in the clear. Basically it would let you anonymously assert your age.
