The ESRB has added:

“To be perfectly clear: Any images and data used for this process are never stored, used for AI training, used for marketing, or shared with anyone; the only piece of information that is communicated to the company requesting VPC is a “Yes” or “No” determination as to whether the person is over the age of 25.”

Sure, ok...

I don't know what else to say about this, this will obviously turn into something else.

@jeena @Chickenstalker What are you talking about? Governments have never shifted into authoritarian structures.
They call them big brothers because they look out for you /s.

Yeah and now we just have our social security numbers (if many states have their way) and Driver licenses being a nice database. Like we need a national ID system (not for 18+ material, just in general) since our current system is utter garbage because it was never designed to be used as identification material. The SSN system was hijacked for tax reasons and many banks and institution followed suit.

To be clear, I don't have a solution for the problem itself, but both a central registry of 18+ content use and facial recognition are not the solutions we're looking for.

There is no problem here that needs to be solved. This does not solve any real problem and only creates more, even worse problems.
