What I was reading was that it would be some sort of local-only API that would set an age bracket on user creation and allow applications to query it. It wouldn't go out "directly" to the internet. Though who's to say what the applications and shit would do with the information once they have it.

let's just be glad that, for now anyway, blocking out the sun to get everyone to pay more electricity is still just a joke.
