Verifying the age (but not the identity) of UK redditors

Change the laws to allow server operators to just send an RTA header [1] and leave the verification to parental controls on the client side. It's not a server operators job to be everyone's parent. It's not perfect, it will be bypassed by teens but it's better than what we have today and does not leak identities.

- Add header to anything that may contain adult content or user-provided content.

- Change law to allow RTA headers as an alternative means of adult verification.

- Set a time requirement in the law for all major browsers and all web clients used by small children to implement or utilize existing parental controls. When enabled check for header and prompt for authentication unless the site was already approved by the parent in parental controls. That is where parental controls belong.

- Remind politicians that the 3rd party verification sites will ultimately leak all their data and their family members data just like what was used to reverse engineer trips to Epstein island. [2] All of the politicians kinks will be exposed using such sites and/or they will be at risk of being blackmailed. Whatever lobbying or kickbacks they are getting for approving the 3rd party sites will not be worth it.
