So, You’ve Hit An Age Gate. What Now? EFF is against age gating and age verification mandates, and we hope we’ll win in getting existing ones overturned and new ones prevented. But mandates are already in effect, and every day many people are asked to verify their age across the web, despite prominent cases of sensitive data getting leaked in the process. At some point, you may have been faced with the decision yourself: should I continue to use this service if I have to verify my age? https://www.techdirt.com/2026/02/10/so-youve-hit-an-age-gate-what-now/
