Yes — Protect Minors: Age gates are trivially bypassed; hard verification is the only viable shield against youth mental health harms and online exploitation.

Device-Level Only: Mandate age verification at the operating system/hardware level (Apple/Google) rather than sharing IDs across individual websites.
