The British government have no jurisdiction over websites hosted outside the UK.
They are not forcing people outside of the UK to do age verification. However, they are allowed to do that in the UK. Please reread what I wrote. All people IN THE UK must do age verification. Mojang have agreed to comply with the British government. So we don't have a choice.
I'm talking about mods that could allow running commands. Please re-read this comment chain.
Mods hosted on websites not based in the UK cannot be taken down by the UK government.
So yes, people in the UK have to abide by the age verification ( if they want social features, so you do have a choice). But people in the UK can also download and install any mod they want.
Age verification sucks, but at this point in time all we know is that it will be required for social features. Running commands, which seems to be your main concern, is not a social feature
Mojang will prevent those mods from being visible in the UK the same way that Imajur is not available in the UK without VPNs.
The chat will be disabled if you do not do age verification. That prevents the ability to use commands. How else can I explain it? And yes mods can be removed by the government and by the studios themselves such as the infamous hot coffee mod for GTA 5 from Rockstar or various modded versions from Nintendo games like emulation. The mods only stay up as long as Mojang or Microsoft do not send a cease and disist order. In fact, a quick google search shows that many mods got banned on Curse Forge for going against the terms of service from Mojang and Microsoft. Such as mods featuring guns or content they deem to adult oriented. They also have a profanity filter that they implimented recently to censor things. You are clearly just trying to argue here so I am not going to continue this conversation.
