The idea that you should verify your legal identity to load a website is reprehensible and not something that should be treated seriously. It should be ridiculed like the authoritarian nonsense it is.

On a factual point, you don't have to verify your legal identity. You can also do age verification by uploading a selfie. (I'm sure that won't change how you feel about this legislation, but let's not spread inaccurate information about it.)
Maybe, maybe not. It should be debated, and all the pros and cons should be considered.
But age verification as a concept is a completely separate issue from the implementation of the verification system itself.
