New Apple Update

No mate. I normally have my debit card on me.

Right’o, if you’re not convinced then that’s perfectly fine.

Just asked ChatGPT why Apple are doing this and it responded with the below:

UK law is the main driver​

In the UK, the Online Safety Act has kicked in, which basically says:

Platforms need to stop under-18s accessing adult content

That doesn’t just mean dodgy websites — it also includes:

• 18+ apps
• in-app purchases
• certain online services

So Apple has started adding age checks into iOS to stay compliant.

​

Yes mate, it’s an absolute joke. Everyone uploading personal information, and then they will be asked again by every bloody app under the sun. This is something we need to pay close attention to. What is an over 18s bloody app or website?
