No shit. Doesn’t mean it still isn’t extremely useful and revolutionary.
“AI” is a tool to be used, nothing more.
They're coming for our VPNs soon enough, be sure of that. Here in Australia they've already flagged wanting to ban them.
What happens if someone is illegitimately removed from this database? How can you show whether it was a glitch, or deliberate? How do you know if the information they have about you is even right, or get it changed if you need to? Where’s the accountability?
Database logs and procedural logs is how you know.

A national database that the trump admin controls

I think that a few independent secure age verification services will pop up soon enough. Wouldn’t surprise me if the parent company of pornhub or one of those sites makes it themselves. There’s huge money to be made in it.
Hell I might start asking around with my lawyer friends to see what would be required. Could knock it out in a weekend. The hardest part would be finding the consequences/legal issues of verifying based on fake documents.
And yes countries like the US, UK, and Australia are all fast approaching a digital id that will be used to access the internet. Australia will be the first.

We’re already getting a Digital ID system soon, and our banks are going cashless. Currently whenever you try to take cash out of more than a few hundred bucks you get a free game of 20 questions and they will refuse to give you your own money if they don’t like your answers.
Why not just turn on auto-hide of the task bar? Not the perfect fix, obviously, and they absolutely should bring back being able to move it to the side, but it at least solves the "taking up valuable space" problem.
