@elena@aseachange.com the goal of Age Verification is to force hardware remote attestation everywhere, meaning a device that does not run an OS "blessed" by the state will be unable to access internet
This fits well with ChatContol : if ChatContol was accepted, it would need to scan locally my messages. But then I could simply patch / remove the line of code that scans my messages. With Hardware Remote Attestation they ensure only OS "blessed" by the state can run, and those OS will implement ChatContol

@elena@aseachange.com This also effectively kills founding principles of FOSS. One of the freedom of open source is the right to modify code and run it. With hardware Attestation, if you modify the code, you cannot run it anymore (well, you "can" but then your device is a useless brick that can't access 99.9% of the internet)
