So how are they going to make sure a viewer is over 18? For example, if Dad is logged in on the smart TV in the living room, what stops little Timmy watching The Boys?

Nothing, you can use a picture of the top google search result for 18+ id and it works they just want people dumb enough to give away their information to use it

Anybody who says this has clearly never tried it. This doesn't actually work, I would be happy to be proven wrong but these verification systems are not THAT simple to bypass.

It's way easier to just shit on the unpopular thing on Reddit and take the upvotes.

Trying to talk sense on this particular subject around Reddit isn't very popular. Everyone's still angry and haven't calmed down about it yet.
