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

wired.com Jacob Roach 2025-10-04 08:30:00

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.

Persona’s privacy policy states that it collects not only biometric information and personal details, like your ID, but also ties that to information gathered from

Nothing’s New Wireless Earbuds Have a ‘Talk’ Button, and I Need to Know What That Means

A paddle for track selection; a tic-tac-shaped wheel/button for volume and ANC; a pairing button (okay, this one is boring, but still, it’s a button). Even on its recently released Phone 3, there’s a button on the back of the phone for doing really useful stuff with its “Glyph Matrix,” like… playing spin the bottle.

Study Directly Links Emissions from Fossil Fuel Producers to Devastating Heatwaves

A new study directly links hundreds of major heatwaves since 2000 to the emissions from fossil fuel and cement producers. Among its fundings, the researchers conclude that as many as a quarter of all heatwaves since the start of this century would have been “virtually impossible” without emissions from any of the world’s 14 largest fossil fuel and cement producers. The study, published Wednesday in the journal Nature, shows that greenhouse gas emissions from 180 of the world’s biggest cement, o
