I made an extension that bypasses online age verification

To show my stance towards online age verification, I made a small (literally, less than 10 kilobytes) add-on that will completely skip ageverif.net’s verification prompt. (Only that site (for now?))

With more and more data breaches going on it’s important to protect yourself by not sharing unnecessary data, and to show how broken some age verification platforms are!

It’s #opensource too! https://github.com/helloyanis/agechecker.net-bypass (more info on why I do it is in the readme)

    But don’t worry! All you need to do is give them all your private information, your passport, your driver’s license, and your first born and it’ll all be fine!

    Weird. I had to solve a bunch of CAPTCHAs and also I have a limited set of services I use daily.
