The technology uses a phone camera to capture an image of someone’s face and calculate their likely age.

People about to view porn love to have their picture taken and uploaded to a database. I see literally no problems with this whatsoever.

Would make more sense to do that on people in the videos. Prevent child pornography or teen nudes. Let teenagers watch porn, we did that in the 90s
