Comment Re:Compatibility catch 22 (Score 1) 81

Not a catch 22: LibreOffice has good compatibility (import and export) for MS formats and they improve it all the time, this is not about mere compatibility but about monopoly on file formats. And when all office suites work by default with MS formats, they maintain the monopoly.

I can say two things:

1. for years Google is pushing you hard to enter a phone number when making an account, not impossible but the average user won't manage to skip the requirement

2. most Google accounts are made when people set up their Android phone for use on that phone.

The big caveat I mentioned at the top is that there is no way for these systems to verify that the person who is providing age verification is the legitimate holder of the national ID upon which it's based. That is, a kid can steal their dad's ID and use it. Because the age verification is truly, strongly anonymous, there is no way for anyone to detect or prevent this... yet.

I think the kid has to steal dad's phone, having the ID is not enough, when you install the app you have to scan your face and match it with the picture/biometrics from the ID card.
