    Not sure what is worse:

    1. The political fight re: should the OS store your age at all. (Linux will be illegal because they didn’t bend).
    2. The political fight re: should OSes be required to verify your age / identity?

    To me, fighting at step 1 has the advantage of keeping the infrastructure from getting built, and the disadvantage of people saying “well, actually, there’s nothing concerning or new here.”

    Fighting at step 2 has the advantage of being a clearer threat, but a disadvantage since the prior infrastructure has been built, society has adapted it, and politicians say “think of the children.”

    I feel like it is more strategic to fight at every step.
