Even if they do need to authenticate some digitalid, there's no need to store it and there's no reason for it to link to an individual person.

This is a very dangerous idea as is.

And this won't even stop kids from finding porn. I think it is based on good intentions but they are too proud to say "yeha, maybe this has more cons than pros"

It's obviously not based on good intentions... how can you be this naïve? If a conservative says "but think of the children", you know fully well whatever they're proposing is not for the wellbeing of children.

When a conservative says "think of the children", what they mean is "think of the queer kids that will be outed to their parents and sent to conversion therapy".
