privacy and age verification

[http://dummy.us.eu.org/robert (Robert)]

I heard recently that France is on the verge of implementing age
verification nationwide.

Yet, it slams right into the face of the GDPR.
https://www.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/1sm1xb8/comment/ogbkcoh/ makes a
good argument why it's impossible to preserve privacy even with
Zero-Knowledge Proofs.

https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/zero-knowledge-full-record-age-verification-infrastructure-xerne
makes an even fuller argument about this.

As the EFF and ACLU has said over and over again (and I say), we need to
get the privacy right first and then work on any options after that.
