Too late assholes… I’m already deleting most of the posts I made on my discord and I will be migrating elsewhere soon.

    They don’t actually care about age verification, they just want the personal information.

      This became incredibly obvious to me several months ago. I was trying to buy vape parts (coils and tanks, no liquids or batteries or anything) and the site wanted me to do a 3-D selfie to verify my age.

      First of all, absolfuckinglutely not. Second of all, metal and plastic aren’t controlled substances so there’s no reason I even should have been carded, much less asked for 3-D face scan shit… so yeah it wasn’t FOR anything other than data mining.
