Specifically, they want to force age verification right into the oprating system of all possible devices. Yes, the way it is worded it would mean that you'd have to verify your age to use a calculator.

It is pretty blatant that all of this is just an excuse to enforce mass surveilance and giving your biometric data to the AI companies such as Palantir and tying anything you do and say to your identity.

The whole "Think of the children" is pretty rich given the kinds of people who are pushing this are also those who should really be nowhere near kids.
