It will spread to everywhere else if we allow it for social media. In Australia for example, mandatory age verification has already spread to video games.

I'm with you on the slippery slope argument. I do mean that I think we would solve most problems with just an implementation on social media.

In the US for buying games online we've had age verification for a long time. For in-store purchases you see that too. Same with movies.
