Let's confirm your age

"Let's" as if were about to do something fun.

This, besides the rampant spying, corruption and theft, is the thing I can't stand about these tech monopolies

Let’s get that username associated with a government ID! Brilliant! Fun even! Gotta know who’s been critical of their government after all.

it's the vpn that does it, ime. i use a hurricane electric tunnel for ipv6 and it causes a lot of the big sites to get very anxious. over my residential ipv4 it's no problem.

Doesn't this ruin the whole purpose of reddit?

It might be too late now but here is a video you can try for aging verification.

Verification failed. AI just sees a 5 year old throwing a fit because the world doesn't revolve around him.

nah, it's been like this for years. i'm like 99% certain its because either their geo-ip tables don't accomodate the ipv6 range, or, like in the case of netflix, hurricane electric blocks are marked as vpns.

but i appreciate the call to paranoia. it lets me know i'm among my people

I'd rather people just stop using sites that require age verification.
