Many might've seen the Australian ban of social media for <16 y.o with no idea of how to implement it. There have been mentions of "double blind age verification", but I can't find any information on it.

Out of curiosity, how would you implement this with privacy in mind if you really had to?

My friend has worked with a government to create zero-knowledge proof from IDs. Turns out there's a lot of good software engineered to solve that problem.

The UX is still shit tho

Any open projects you could point to on the subject or articles about the government efforts? I would love to learn more on that!
