      The government’s wants are not in the PR. The PR is an optional JSON field.

      The field isn’t dangerous, you’re conflating two different things.

      The age verification laws are the threat, not an optional text field or the developer who added it.

        Compliance in advance is also a threat. Do not comply, do not begin to comply. It’s a fascist law. Any compliance is collaborating with fascists.
