Brazil's authoritarian age verification law became active this month. It won't be implemented by GrapheneOS. Complying would require integrating a mandatory process for each user where a third party service checks government identification and confirms a match using the camera.

« La loi brésilienne stricte sur la vérification de l'âge est entrée en vigueur ce mois-ci. Elle ne sera pas appliquée par #GrapheneOS . Pour s'y conformer, il faudrait intégrer un processus obligatoire pour chaque utilisateur, dans le cadre duquel un service tiers vérifierait les pièces d'identité officielles et confirmerait leur authenticité à l'aide de la caméra. » View quoted note →

Strange there are no age limit restrictions or warnings when buying the devices or sim cards etc would that not have been a better place to start? Or that would mean it was actually about protecting kids.
I don't understand when they ask you to confirm your age. Setup a new phone? Each startup? Its an app for government sites?
