A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Could this be a good thing, if you opt-in (aren't required to do whatever verification your phone wants)? I would absutely never give my id to any porn site so if there were a secure way for my phone to say "yep, they are over the required age" then that could be an acceptable solution. If the phone doesn't store your ID photo, that would be very good.
