They don't actually care about age verification, they just want the personal information.

They are trying to set up identifying every account to a name and face to have their computers record everything, from their footage on the streets, cctv of you in your car, in stores, over traffic lights, to every website you visit, every word you read, every word you write, and so forth and run it through AI threat detection/social scores. It's new tech that is coming online and they are trying to surrender us to it, to bring this trojan horse behind the walls of liberal democracy. To let Palantir and like companies to decide winners and losers, what jobs you can get, loans, what search engines will even show you, what prices you are charged, how the government treats you, how businesses treat you, etc. All in a way not attributed to it, that you can never know and never challenge.
