If it was intended to be a single season mini series, it would have been pitched and greenlit that way in the first place.












Because it’s not about age verification. It never was. And anytime they claim anything is about safety for kids it’s because they’re trying to something extremely unpopular that even the bootlickers would have an issue with.
If it was actually about age verification, they could use a system that uses certified identifiers like your drivers license, SSN, etc. to verify age, and requests that anonymize information from each party so you can’t link a specific identity to a specific website.
This is about being able to tie your online identity to your real life identity with certainty. Having third party companies handle the verification means that in regions where direct government action is limited by law, they can just buy the correlation info from the verification company, bypassing many of the laws that limit similar direct action.
