gizmodo.com Lucas Ropek 2025-10-04 10:55:39

VPNs and Age-Verification Laws: What You Need to Know

The problem is how the verification happens. You aren’t verifying your age with the government. You’re routing it through an independent third party, and most of the laws on the books are designed specifically in this way. In the UK, for example, Reddit verifies with Persona, and Bluesky uses Kids Web Services (owned by Epic Games).
