Maybe we could get some open-source routers and kernel patches going to implement this instead: https://bill.herrin.us/network/ipxl.html

It's what should've been done instead of IPv6 -- well, maybe it's a bit of a non-sequitur for the current problem, but it would create a different internet that maybe could be routed around the age-verified one if that comes to pass.
