Apple iOS now requires age verification to access websites it deems 18+. Not even using another browser like Firefox works, it’s blocked at the OS level.
I was putting off switching to Graphene or e/os until prices improve, but looks like my hand is forced.
Edit: VPN doesn’t even work because Apple knows your GPS location. I haven’t tried location spoofing yet because that’s a bit more annoying to setup.
I t cones down to, what does apple require as verification process? And how do they store the data?
They wanted my driver’s licence, shared with third parties. They claim it’s deleted shortly after upload, but I don’t really trust it to be honest… maybe they do, but they won’t even tell me who the third parties are
Given the track record other companies have with accidently on purpose not deleting such files, then getting hacked and the files stolen, I really wouldn’t trust it at all. Plus, fuck age verification anyway.
