Theoretically, using zero knowledge proof for age verification is a great idea.
Too bad that while the porn website you are visiting will not get your name from google, google will sell the fact that you visited that porn website to anyone who is interested...
"sell the fact that xyz" can this phraseology die? this is not what these big companies do. they sell attention, not data.
If you're using Chrome, which most people are, I'd assume this is the case anyway?
Note - agree with your sentiment.

Has Google has actually done this? According to Google, they don't sell personal information:

I'm willing to believe they've broken this promise, but if you can point to some actual proof, I'd like to see it.
