Taken from the readme of the app on github:
The current release provides only basic functionality, with several key features to be introduced in future versions, including:
App and device verification based on Google Play Integrity API and Apple App Attestation
Additional issuance methods beyond the currently implemented eID based method.
These planned features align with the requirements and methods described in the Age Verification Profile.
There is an issue opened to remove this as it’s basically telling us that to verify our age in the EU an American corporation has the last word, making it not only a privacy nightmare but a de-facto monopoly on the phone market that will leave out of the verification checks even the fairphone (european) with /e/os.
Routers have parental controls, if your kid can figure out how to bypass that then they can figure out a VPN and it’s a moot point anyway. I have no idea what 3 button system you’re talking a out here. I don’t even get the analogy you’re trying to make.
Parental control in routers are based on DNS blacklist. That works only for full websites. What about steam, Netflix, online shops?
…those all use DNS too…apps use DNS to connect to their servers. DNS is used by basically everything internet connected, not just websites.
Yes, and EVERYTHING you buy from stream you buy from the same domain. Everything you buy from Amazon, you buy from the same domain.
Can you explain to me how a DNS filter knows if the user visits reddit for example to read gaming news or watch porn?
Children of the age they’re trying to protect are children that probably shouldn’t be on reddit
What about Steam, Amazon, …?
