    There are no current EU age verification laws on file, the DSA does not require anything like it. There is a solution in the pipe which lets people verify their ages without giving away personal info in the pipe, but it’s not even close to being implemented.

    So what the hell, Nexus Mods?

    Time for Nexus Mods to move just a little bit from their home in the UK to the independent principality of Sealand so they don’t have to deal with all of this.

    Also, I didn’t understand why these laws don’t use a token verification system where the website just connects to a government server that verifies the identity and gives a submit simple yes/no instead of having to store Personally Identifiable Information (PII) themselves.
