This cannot work safely in the current legal and regulatory environment.
In principle, there seem to be ways to securely, anonymously, and privately handle age verification. To the best of my knowledge, no such system has been deployed or mandated.
Thus, we are left with only the requirement to hand over critical documents to those who have no "standards of care" that make it safe to do so.
Have none of these people ever heard of any company or government agency losing control of personal information? How about they put some effort into fixing that first.
Louisiana's system sounds pretty sophisticated, although I haven't looked into the exact implementation. Some sort of cryptographic protocol happens through the porn site between the DMV and your device, which returns a go-ahead or not, and nothing else. The "only" data leaked is your exact porn preferences to the government.
Shockingly, everyone in the state just moved to seedier sites anyway. Who would have thought? /s
Which would be the only reasonable way to do it. Do people actually think they give their drivers license to pornhub? Is it fucking 1988 still?
Kind of? People still fax medical records around where I live, as of last I checked. Policymakers aren't the most tech-savvy bunch, generally speaking.
