I made an extension that bypasses online age verification

To show my stance towards online age verification, I made a small (literally, less than 10 kilobytes) add-on that will completely skip ageverif.net's verification prompt. (Only that site (for now?))

With more and more data breaches going on it's important to protect yourself by not sharing unnecessary data, and to show how broken some age verification platforms are!

It's #opensource too! https://github.com/helloyanis/agechecker.net-bypass (more info on why I do it is in the readme)

Don't link to or participate on Lemmy.ml, join the boycott today!

Cross-posted as part of ongoing boycotting/protest efforts to reduce the influence of .ml comms and indirectly, the instance as a whole, to help vitilize and drive non-.ml comms and make it an easier decision for other instance admins to defederate because of the behavior and attitudes of the .ml instance admins (see megathread link above)

Some highlights from the link:

Dessalines, head .ml admin, lead Lemmy dev actively spreading genocide denialism https://sh.itjust.works/post/61371958

"If you don't support Russia then you just don't understand geopolitics" ~dessalines, main .ml admin, head dev https://lemmy.world/post/27352415

"See! nobody died IN Tiananmen Square, just AROUND it, so it doesn't count!!" ~ Davel, .ml admin https://lemmy.world/post/30673342

"NK is actually good and anything counter to that is Western propaganda!" ~dessalines, main .ml admin, head dev https://lemmy.world/post/31595035

Showing support for Ukraine on .ml is worthy of a site ban - dessalines, main .ml admin, head dev https://lemmy.world/post/32775563

Hey, I tend to be rather bothered by many of your cross-posting, but this is actually a cool reason for it. Thanks for this!
