Agree as long as it’s not used to infringe privacy. Problem is that these initiatives usually imply digital id, which by themselves are not bad but can be exploited to spy after citizens.
Actually I’ve been thinking about protocol which would allow age verification via government issued certificate and avoid privacy concerns. Maybe I should get back to it
I’m fine with a big social rollout for K12 version, where schools give each student a one-time code and they can sign up. All linked accounts are automatically locked into this version until predefined date. No data collection, chronological order feed only, and they can only interact with other people in the K12 program. Guardians or teachers can monitor this program but no strangers can even access this mode.

The kids would get around it anyway. It is just a way to start IDing people online.
