I don't think you understand the age verification put in place here, this isn't "all sites require a little splash screen where you click yes I'm over 18," if I understand correctly it's an official process that inextricably ties you personally to the use of the site, that stays on file
it would be trivial to expand this system to anything else you do, legal activities for which there's no reason there shouldn't be an expectation of privacy
the state could one day decide that any given activity is suddenly questionable, illegal, represents transphobia or anti-globalist sentiment, and due to your real ID verification, haul you in for questioning
it's not about the porn, it's about the nanny state deciding what you can and can't do
