It's been a relatively common position to find, at least before the most recent hubbub around Steam, Itch.io, Britain, etc. For instance, while https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42076302, ...
Or at the very least, many here support the goal of keeping children and/or teenagers off of social media entirely, while disliking the means of ID verification. But it's not like there's any other obvious means.

If you stretch the definition of "recent" to ~ 60d then you can also search for the pornhub/France thing. Quick google nets this thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44210557. There are likely others, too... but I'm lazy :).

My case? What's YOUR case. Assert a position and provide proof in triplicate please.
Please tell me exactly what you think and I can nitpick it vaguely instead of putting forth mine. Heh.
In any case, just look at the comments under my comment. You'll see them.

Don't be disingenuous with your proof demands and tell us what you think and then we can discuss the merits of your argument.
> My case?
The case that "so many" people are advocating this on HN. Sounds like a significant percentage!
> What's YOUR case. Assert a position
Their case is that you should give evidence.

"you should give evidence" doesn't need its own proof. And nitpicking such a simple idea would be a waste of everyone's time.
You're not the original poster of the question so why are you trolling?
"So many" means "so many". You're creating a straw man in bad faith.
What's your take on digital Age verification. Either provide useful commentary or stop trolling. Address the existence of the other comments I linked.
