There is growing pressure to require age verification in an effort to protect children online. However, some of the initiatives in this area also pose risks for general users forced to provide personal information as Justin Newman describes in a PC Mag article on the topic.

The Discord approach is discussed in a recent piece also in PC Mag by James Peckham.
