Yeah, I wouldn’t want my account tied to my bankid either. But bankid could easily make an age verification that wasn’t tied to accounts.

Oh I see. Thanks for the clarification. Is that something they could have gone without and still be as secure as possible?

I don’t think BankID has any sort of SDK that lets other apps access user data like that? All interaction with BankID I know of at least is triggered with the app needing authentication/signature opening a BankID session to the central service where you enter your authentication and then the BankID app is used as MFA to verify this.

Or am I misunderstanding what you are saying completely?

Most kids here in Norway get a bank account with debet card and BankID with it at 13. Implementing a solution to use it to verify if you are older than X years old would actually be less work than your proposed solution, both for the social media site, banks, the kids and the parents.

BankID is it’s own trusted platform. It is not connected to any of them. I am not sure if I understand what the other person is trying to say. Maybe they are afraid that Google and Apple can use BankID verified sessions to better identify the user?

Is there really any logical reason why one voter should be allowed to block the entire process like that? The whole filibuster concept is the strangest part of US politics to me.

I think Flowers For Algernon by Daniel Keyes fits the bill. Not too long and has punched everybody I’ve recommended it to in the guts.

Maybe there is some big banana that wants to make our banana opening lives impractical?

Wondering why somebody would downvote this.

Why?

My first games were Alley Cat and Paratrooper. We also had Leisure Suit Larry. I was navigating in dos at age three to start them. I didn’t know how to read or write and I didn’t know English was a language I was later going to learn from games and cartoons yet. I played Larry more and more as I grew up, but I never really understood any of the raunchy stuff until many years later.

Thanks! I honestly felt it got repetitive after just a few videos…

Any of them actually make content anymore?

Tell me more about the .NET fiasco of 2021?

Currently reading news and communicating with people around the world from the privacy of my toilet using my hand terminal. It can also understand what I am saying and excecute my spoken commands (to some extent at least). That’s some Sci fi shit right there. Pun intended

Trogdor was a man!
